Suburban Kansas City’s Best Resource
for Buying Foreclosure and HUD Homes

Let’s face it. The Kansas real estate market has changed. Today we are all familiar with the terms “short sale,” “foreclosure,” “REO” and “HUD.” This website is here to let you know the positives of buying foreclosure property in Kansas, particularly the Johnson County suburbs of Kansas City.

We will on occasion also feature HUD owned homes, foreclosures and REOs from the Kansas City, Missouri neighborhoods of West Plaza, Brookside, Waldo and Red Bridge. In addition, we look at “Real Deals” in certain eastern Kansas City neighborhoods as well as Independence, Lee’s Summit and Grandview, MO.

QUICK! THE POSITIVES
Equity. Plain and simple. By purchasing a bank foreclosure property or HUD owned home at the right price you can earn yourself a nice little “sweat equity” nest egg. You can also help to revitalize or stabilize a neighborhood and it’s occupants that have been adversely affected by distressed real estate.

BUT WHAT ARE THE DRAWBACKS?
No doubt buying a home to rehab isn’t for everyone. The buying process is more cumbersome. You have extra meetings with extra inspectors, property auditors as well as your mortgage guy and your real estate agent. And whether you are contracting the entire updating and rehabbing process out to a contractor or doing some or all of the work yourself, well, let’s face it there is a lot of work involved.
