Country Club Plaza = Bannister Mall part 2?
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - More than 100 teens converged on the Country Club Plaza Saturday night and created a ruckus for patrons and a lot of work for Kansas City police officers.
Read more: http://www.kshb.com/dpp/news/local_n...#ixzz2tczs9I7u Stories like those about the plaza have been rolling in for the last year or longer. At one point there was a shooting and they have put a curfew in place I remember years ago bannister mall area was thriving. Hypermart and all the other surrounding stores were very popular and always busy. Crime slowly strangled the area and people chose to go elsewhere. The whole place turned into a ghost town. Obviously Cerner is building there now but the question I pose is simple There are a lot of options other than the plaza around KC so... Will the Plaza die the same way the Bannister area did? |

The only complaint I have with the Plaza is..I can't tell the difference between the Hookers and the Rich women...They both dress the same.

It's all relative.
If you buy a house for $200,000 and it goes up 25% before you sell it you make $50,000 If you buy a house for $500,000 and it goes up the same 25% you make $125,000 With rates so low and the market here so strong, it's worked out very well. Rather an expensive house in a strong market in an affluent area then a cheap shitbox in a weak market in a so-so area...LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION Ask all the people who bought in San Francisco within the last 5-6 years how much they are making and it's a boatload. Just takes a lot of clams to get into the game in California

It's all relative. Coming from the rural Ozarks, it's hard for me to put the JoCo housing market in context, let alone the Bay Area. I just can't see how so many individuals have so much money. I know there are corporate offices and portfolios, but surely most of these individuals have a head start? How do folks making $50k to start pay off their college loans and afford their $3K monthly rent? How do they get ahead?

The big difference today is that college costs have been blown out of the water by too much easy money, just like the housing market was. Taking on $80K, $100K, or more in debt for college is crazy money. I feel very sorry for today's young people. You normally don't buy your first property in any of these markets unless you make big bucks-these are markets people tend to move into a little later in life after they get going. Salaries around here are crazy, even for government employees who make $75K or more for do nothing jobs, many making $125K, $150K and the like. Your tax dollars hard at work.
