3. Shawnee Mission

Appreciation versus Cash Flow
Nevertheless, per capita and per household income tends to monitor reduced, the school districts rank reduced and there wasn’t the community planning involved in the growth of the city in the early days like there was in JoCo.
Generally speaking, with exceptions to the rule to be found, if you’re searching for a greater cash flow return you might want to be looking in Jackson County, Missoui.  If you are interested in investment property and don’t want the cash flow to live on and can wait years until you retire in your profession as an engineer, doctor…whatever… you may find Johnson County, Kansas more desirable.

In the interest of full disclosure, I chose Olathe because I have two children that had some special requirements and Olathe was a far better choice. Blue Valley is an exceptional school district for its talented and Shawnee Mission, although it’s fallen on some tougher times, it time tested and has been exceed when compared nationally.
Following the exact same arguments as above, because the school districts are frequently considered “lessor” the home values tend to trail that of neighboring JoCo.  Sure, Lee’s Summit sometimes ranks in that “most livable” category that has a good school district.  Yet, it stands alone.

All that’s to say that yes, you should buy smart.  You should put money . Yes, you’ll get a lower cash on cash return and yes, you will outpace almost all other areas of the Kansas City metropolitan area in appreciation time and time again.  Johnson County is a engine.
Whether you are rich or poor, black, brown or white, muslim or Christian or agnostic, don’t most of us want the best for our kids? Therefore, when you purchase Johnson County, KS rental property just know that because the home values will be higher and therefore the returns will be lower. 

Jackson County is a great place to live.  And to invest.  You’ll get much better cash flow.  Appreciation, for the most part, tracks at just above inflation though last year Kansas City was among the highest loving cities in the country at 9%.

Allow me to simplify real estate for you; home values are always powerful and appreciate more centered on the school district. 
Here in the Kansas City real estate investing market the conversation turns again and again to whether you should opt for the long term stability of Johnson County, Kansas versus the greater cash flow returns of Jackson County, Missouri.  Yes, there are a couple other counties you might choose to invest in. However, these are the big two.
What they all have in common is great school districts.  I think most of us who live in JoCo would rank the Big Three school districts in this arrangement;

And make no mistake, it’s not that Jackson County, Missouri is a bad place to maintain income property.  Kansas City proper ranks as a fantastic place for the young over and over again, and KC is home to the comforts that bind a city together; art museums, great parks, a revitalized downtown, the Chiefs, the Royals and the Kaufman Center.
Johnson County is the home to cities which constantly show up in the “most livable” reports of the various magazines and sites; Overland Park and Olathe.  Nevertheless there are other cities of great import; Leawood, Lenexa, Merriam, Mission, Mission Hills, Shawnee, Gardner…to name a few.
