I am in process of closing a deal on a group of 16 properties in Kansas City Missouri. I would like to build up my rolodex - i'm looking to meet with people who I could hire as part of our "Crew" (handymen, contractors, inspectors, and general hands on repair and mgmt people).
Also I would love to meet some local investors (new and seasoned), property managers & lenders, who I can brainstorm with and bounce ideas off of and get general advice.
I look forward to doing business with you and growing our businesses together!
I am a local new investor in Kansas City would love to brainstorm some ideas with you! Would also be interested in learn how you are closing on 16 properties in Kansas City as well!

Ramon, it is actually coming together quite easily. I found the deal via networking initially here on BP (and the other places that leads to). Ultimately I was talking to a property manager in Grandview (who i found through a series of connections originating from @Mike D'Arrigo). Property management is probably going to be our most crucial contact in the KC area since I live in Oregon which is why I was first looking at PM's before properties. However, after chatting for a bit the PM mentioned an owner of a 16 unit portfolio that the owner was toying with selling. We were able to talk with the seller and the PM and analyze the deal pretty extensively and just submitted our offer yesterday. No guarantees but it's looking very promising that we will be able to buy these for a price that really makes sense for our REI strategy.
We are really pumped to hopefully get a great launch into the KC market and continue to grow from there.

This would be great, I really appreciate it!
I'm looking for referrals for great:
- property managers - handymen (non licensed preferred for cost reasons on the majority of small repairs... even more specifically for laminate flooring and painting) - property inspector / contractor - a local attorney would be nice to know
I could also use a property inspector type - especially one who would be willing to let me pay for them for the day rather than per property since i'll be looking at 16 properties over the course of 3 days. I dont need full written up reports, but someone to come along and be an extra set of eyes and point out anything of notable concern.

Maybe to be more clear, I am looking for someone to walk properties with me as an extra set of eyes to point out anything I may miss. I am fairly comfortable doing the inspections, but I would happily pay an inspector to lend an extra set of eyes. I do NOT NEED written reports and 'official' inspections (meaning the attached liabilities to the inspector). I just want someone who I can pay for their time to come out and take a look at the physical condition (primarily exterior & plumbing) to back me up. There are 16 units we will be inspecting in the Grandview area, please contact me if this is up anyones alley!
@Rodney SmithI am buying and selling in the Kansas City market so I would like to connect to talk about property managers, handymen, etc. I just like to talk about the market and area to see who to avoid and who to work with. I had a bad pm in another city and was able to talk to other investors and they had the same or worse problems with this pm so It is always good to keep up to date with what is going on in a certain area.

Hi Rodney i am acquiring in Grandview area. If you are interested and you are getting a great price on the buy you may consider flipping one or two to me for cash profit if we could make it win/win. Cliff
Thanks everyone for all the help! We were able to have a massively successful week in Kansas City! Thanks to all who met up with us and we are sincerely sorry that we weren't able to connect with everyone on our list due to time restrictions ... Next Time!
We were able to inspect all 16 properties, interview 4 Prop. Mgmt companies, put an offer on an additional duplex line up construction / support crews, etc. It was a busy week!
Now we just have to finalize the negotiations (hopefully close by end of year), and rinse and repeat!
I'm looking for a good handyman referral for a make ready in Westport today, and to build a working relationship with over time. I often seek referrals for other professionals mentioned. May I PM you for referrals, as well?
If anybody is looking for handymen work my husband is providing some on the side when we are not currently involved in our own projects. Message me for his info.
