I have a property halfway between Mariposa and Oakhurst that I'll be posting to Airbnb soon. DM me - Happy to share learnings so far and give you an agent referral.

I've been happy with One Stop Property Management - been using them for a couple of years. I'm operating long distance, and they've been detail oriented about letting me know when a contractor I hired did shoddy work and maintenance issues before they become a problem.

@Jonathan A. - I ended up moving forward with One Stop as well. They've been excellent - highly recommend. Feel free to PM me if you have questions. 

Recommend JLB Foundation (https://www.jlbfoundationkc.com/). I used them for push piers a couple years ago. Foundation work can be quite expensive, but their bid was the best I got, and they also seemed to have more expertise than the other contractors I talked to. I'm happy with the result. Good luck with your repair.

Recently used Kenny Chau (https://www.thumbtack.com/ca/oakland/electrical-repairs/kenny-chau/service/304657014013796532) for a whole house lighting project in my primary house. Better prices than most and was very knowledgeable. 

Hi Ryan - I'm looking for B class properties (SFH, potentially duplex). North of the river or East (Independence, Blue Springs, Lee's Summit, etc.). Do you think your property manager would be a good fit?

Hi Chris - thanks for the info and links! It appears that one of the three companies isn't licensed (still looking), so very good to know.

Hey all,

I'm looking for a reliable Kansas City area property manager and am consider the following folks:

- One Stop Property Management

- Key Partners Property Management

- KC Home Rental

Does anyone have experience with the above companies? I've heard positive anecdotes for each but would be great to hear from others who have had positive/negative experiences.

Thanks!

@Account ClosedI had no idea Texas charged different rates for out of staters! That definitely makes it more difficult. Birmingham and Indianapolis both look strong for cash flow. What metrics do you target for those cities?

I continued my analysis mentioned to look at both long term appreciation and cash flow (I primarily looked at rent:price ratios which is OK, but obviously not perfect). I found a few cities that are strong for both historic appreciation and cash flow:

• Chicago
• Milwaukee
• Minneapolis
• Philadelphia

Any out of state investors have any experience in these cities? Thoughts about these markets?
