My name is Jake Blickenstaff and I live in Blue Springs, Missouri (East of Kansas City, Missouri).

River City Bank and Golden Pacific Bank are local portfolio lenders.

The city will likely not allow it. 

Closer to you is The DC REIA, Capital City REIA, Traction REIAAlso there is a group of BP members that get together in Burke.

I live in Ellicott City, MD and invest in Maryland and the surrounding areas.

Looking at the city maps, other duplexes on that same street have been split and the zoning remains the same.

The smaller developers have taken to purchasing smaller city lots that can be short platted or lot line adjusted and building 1 and 2 homes or townhomes on the lots, we call this infilling.

About a month after I moved into my own home, we got massive flooding in the city that hadn't been seen in decades.

The more research I do on here and on city-data forum, the more I see these 'ghetto' rarely turnaround.

I've been seeing a big inflow of properties in the marketplace and looking at the price history, it looks like most of the state has had a steady decline since 2006.Are there cities in Ohio, like Toledo, which will be forgotten by job creators and renters, like Detroit?
