Lee's Summit, Blue Springs and Independence Information
Welcome > Local Info > Lee's Summit, Blue Springs and Independence Information ...

Lee's Summit, Missouri 

For as long as most old-time residents can remember, Lee’s Summit has positioned itself as "A City Bountiful." There was abundant land and a generous spirit among its people. This strong heritage hasn’t been altered as the city steadily blossoms into a beautiful suburb supporting over 90,000 residents within 65 square miles. But the message to outsiders has been tooled for interactive times. Lee’s Summit is now spreading its wings as the city "Where Quality Comes to Life." 

Quality schools are at the top of any newcomer’s wish list. Lee’s Summit R-7 and Blue Springs School district's have been recognized throughout the state and nationwide for academic excellence and their ability to adjust to a fast-growing student population. 

Quality also plays a major role in a community rich in housing opportunities. Lee's Summit has a well-stocked existing home market, with approximately 180 single-family subdivisions. Lee’s Summit and the Kansas City region consistently rate among the top buyer-friendly cities in the nation for housing affordability. 

Lee’s Summit is one of the largest cities in Missouri based on geographic size, and also prides itself on being family friendly. Besides the award-winning schools, the area is rife with lakes, outdoor parks, public libraries, and year-round youth athletic and non-athletic activities. Adding to the quality of life mix are several churches of various denominations and a crime rate lower than similar-sized communities in Missouri. 

Lee’s Summit’s quality neighborhoods and friendly people are two of the main factors attracting businesses to the area. Attractive neighborhoods, strong family values, excellent schools and quality of life are some of the catch-phrases being associated with living in Lee’s Summit. Lee’s Summit is no longer Jackson County’s best-kept secret. 


Blue Springs, Missouri 

Blue Springs is located in Jackson County just east of Kansas City along Interstate 70 near the Missouri River. Blue Springs is part of the Kansas City, Missouri-Kansas metro area. Blue Springs' history is tied to the passage of settlers on their westward journey. Pioneers found the area to be a perfect place, due to the large quantity of cool and clean water from a spring of the Little Blue River; hence the name "Blue Springs". Just 20 minutes from downtown Kansas City, Missouri.

The City has a population of 48,080, making Blue Springs the fourth largest City in Jackson County, Missouri and the city continues to grow in population by 1000 people per year. 

The City of Blue Springs is approximately 19 square miles in size. Public parks and conservation areas in and around the City approximate an additional 17 square miles of dedicated open space. 

Blue Springs has become a desirable place to live due in part to its excellent school district. Expansion magazine has named the Blue Springs School District a Gold Medal School District winner for 2007. This "Education Quotient" provides readers a way to compare school districts nationwide in terms of quality and is based on three indices: Graduate Outcome, Resource Index, and the Community Index. The Blue Springs School District ranks in the top 16% nationwide in the above factors. 


Independence, Missouri 

Independence is the fourth largest city in the state of Missouri and encompasses over 78 square miles. It is the county seat of Jackson County. The current population is approximately 115,000. Independence residents enjoy over 40 parks, excellent schools and outstanding shopping facilities that offer a wide variety of choices ranging from the historic Independence Square to one of the finest malls in the surrounding area. 

Independence is a full-service community on the eastern edge of the Kansas City metro area. Award-winning school districts offer some of the finest educational opportunities in the state. The City of Independence has a student enrollment of approximately 15,000 pupils, served by five school districts. They take great pride in the high quality educational programs they provide for the students of Independence. A low tax structure, central location, productive labor force and impressive business sites have also helped to establish Independence as a center for retail, wholesale, services and manufacturing.

Real Estate Tips
Real Estate Contracts >The Purchase Contract

An important part of being an informed buyer or seller in a real estate transaction is understanding the purchase contract. Before you sit down with an agent to make a written offer to purchase a home or receive an offer on your home, you should take a look at the real estate forms used in your area.

In some areas the real estate agents use standard contracts which have been approved by the local Board of Realtors. In other parts of the country, agreements that contain a significant number of clauses are drawn up by real estate attorneys. You should get a copy of the paperwork you will be signing so that you can read it at your leisure and absorb the information.

Don't hesitate to ask questions about anything that you don't understand; and if any of the standard clauses do not fit your particular situation, you can discuss the wording that you would like to have changed. The key is to familiarize yourself with the paperwork before you have found your new dream house or buyers for your home.

Let me give you a brief overview of what I believe makes a great agent. Most agents continue to do things that were being done years ago to sell real estate. If you are looking to buy or sell and you have internet access and would like to use it during your home buying or home selling process, please shoot us an email and let’s chat for a few minutes. My goal is not to brag about my status in the company and how much I sell, it’s to make your next move as fun and painless as possible. Top agent status always seems to follow. I look forward to hearing from you.
