Labor Day weekend in Kansas City has a soundtrack, and this one comes with fiddles.

Kansas City Irish Fest returns to Crown Center Sept. 4–6 with live music, dancing, food, culture, and plenty of reasons to make a weekend of it.

If you’re new to KC, this is one of those traditions that quickly shows you how much personality this city has beyond the obvious landmarks.

Experience matters when you’re making big financial decisions.

Most people looking at an investment property are already doing one thing: checking what it rents for now, and maybe what it could rent for after a few updates. Good instinct. But rent is only one number in the equation.

Property tax reassessments, insurance renewals, and one major repair can quietly turn a deal that looked good on paper into a break-even trap. We specialize in helping our clients run all the numbers, not just the rent, before they make an offer. Video included in the blog. Link in comments.

Did you know a gift of equity has different relationship requirements than a gift of funds to close?

Most people do not. They apply the rules for one to the other and find out after the contract is written.

FHA is more flexible than its reputation, but the details matter. We just published a full 2026 breakdown covering credit scores, gift funds, and the rule that lets you buy a duplex or fourplex and live in one unit. Video is inside the article too.

If you know someone who counted themselves out, pass it along.

Chiefs training camp closes today in St. Joseph, and the team is marking the final practice with Military Appreciation Day.

It is a good day to say something plainly. To everyone who served, and to the families who served alongside you, thank you. The bill you paid is not one most of us will ever be asked to pay.

We are grateful.

Parkville Days is this weekend, August 21 to 23, and it is one of the best family weekends the Northland puts on all year.

Three days in historic downtown Parkville with the Evans Midland Empire Carnival opening Friday at 6, a parade on Saturday, live music along the Missouri River and on Main Street, arts and crafts, food vendors, and end of summer specials at the downtown shops. You can even take a helicopter ride over the river from Platte Landing Park.

Bring lawn chairs. Bring the kids. It is fifteen minutes from downtown Kansas City and it feels like a completely different world.

Full schedule linked in the comments.
