Kansas City Property Market and Real Estate Guide

(Kansas City, Missouri - MO, USA)



View of Kansas City featuring Union StationKansas City straddles two states - Missouri and Kansas. The state border runs straight through the center of the city, so for postcode purposes they are split, although the divide is not noticeable. Kansas City has a large variety of property on the market, ranging from small studio apartments to plush penthouse lofts.

Just outside of this sprawling metropolis are open fields and woodland that are used for agricultural purposes, giving Kansas City a wonderful array of various landscapes to enjoy. The Downtown area of Kansas City is an ideal setting for those wanting to be centrally located, with entertainment venues, bars and restaurants all sited within a close proximity.


The Midtown area is home to the largest residential neighborhoods and there is also a wide choice of apartments found in this part of the city, both for rent and for sale. Further south from here, the neighborhoods are great for families, coming with traditional white-picket fenced gardens and good schools.

Renting Serviced Apartments

The majority of serviced apartments are fully furnished with modern fixtures and fittings, and offer a concierge-type service with full time security, as well as having optional maid services for an extra cost.

The majority of these are found in the Downtown portion of the city and are the most sought after and most costly. They can be found via the Internet, local classified ads and rental agencies, and there are both short-term and long-term leases available.

Buying Apartments and Houses

Property buying in the US when you are not an American citizen is a complex procedure that includes tax declarations and a lot of paperwork. The best way to purchase a home is to use the services of a solicitor.

Property companies will be able to recommend firms, but it is best to do individual research and find a business independently. Anyone wanting to purchase a home in the US will be scrutinized and providing criminal records, as well as other personal information, is a legal requirement.
