According to US News, Kansas City is currently tied for the hottest housing market in the U.S., driven by a significant surge in demand and higher affordability compared to other regions. With home prices increasing 5.7% year-over-year and rental prices still well below the national average, the market continues to favor sellers despite rising inventory levels. Kansas City's combination of big-city amenities, competitive job growth, and more affordable housing makes it a key area to watch.

Kansas City Homes went to Operation Breakthrough this past Wednesday to take tours of their facilities and learn how this not-for-profit corp impacts the lives of Kansas City children and families.

We’re thrilled to share that, thanks to your generosity and enthusiasm, we not only met but *exceeded* our goal for the Operation Breakthrough Shoe Donation Drive!

Your participation in the event on Wednesday made a huge impact. With your help, we were able to collect hundreds of pairs of shoes, along with some books, clothes, and more, which will go a long way in supporting the children and families at Operation Breakthrough.

A huge thank you to everyone who came out, donated and supported this initiative.

Let’s keep the momentum going and continue to find ways to give back to the community that we love!
