Christina Boveri and her team of real estate professionals at Boveri Realty Group don't just sell Kansas City's Urban Core, they're sold on it. They know it, they live it, they're passionate about it.

And with the opening of its second office at 12th Street and Grand Avenue, Boveri Realty Group is also a dynamic partner in the extraordinary growth and vision fueling downtown Kansas City's vibrancy, panache, and burgeoning reputation as the great place to live and work. The office at 12th & Grand specializes in leasing and it has doubled in placements in the last six months. They offer properties from condos to single family residences from the river to the Plaza. So for those buyers who can't afford to buy right now, Boveri Realty Group helps them find a home to rent.

Boveri Realty's new 12th and Grand office is quintessentially urban - welcoming store front with dozens of linear feet of glass on one of downtown Kansas City's busiest intersections. Visible from the Entertainment District and the Sprint Arena this office will be a resource center for those who want to know about the city. It will be accessible to those who wish to learn how to live, work or play downtown. The office gives new meaning to the term "walk-ins welcome." It's a short step from the sidewalk to a center spilling over with information about neighborhoods and projects, maps, suggestions, and help.

In less than two years, Boveri Realty Group has grown from a single downtown location with four sales agents to two offices and a staff of over 20 agents. The formidable combination of professional expertise and passion for place and people is at the core of the company's success.

"We're determined to focus on one thing and to do that one thing extremely well," Christina explains. "Our focus is the urban core - lofts, condos, townhomes, single-family homes, and commercial buildings - north and south from the River Market to the Country Club Plaza and east and west from Troost Avenue to State Line Road."

Recognized as unsurpassed experts, Christina and her team offer valuable resources for anyone interested in the Urban Core. "We go way beyond knowing what projects are available," Christina smiles. "And that's saying a lot, when you consider that there are 55 current loft and condo projects and there are an additional 2,000 living spaces coming available in the first quarter of next year." This is a lot of information to process, especially when the details are changing all the time. "That is where Boveri Realty Group comes in-- to help decipher and to assist people in finding their perfect urban home."

"Not only do we know what housing is available, we are integrally involved in the neighborhoods and their surrounding developments. Therefore, we can help customers make good choices in finding the right place to live, help make the transition an easy one, and help them settle into this great urban lifestyle. That's especially important for our relocation buyers, who make up about 25 percent of our customers. We help people buy or lease, whichever is best for them."


Dedicated to Downtown
When Christina launched her company with an office in the Crossroads Arts District, there could be no question that she was serious about her niche market. And there was no doubt that she and her team would always view the Urban Core as more than simply a job site. "We work and live here," Christina says. "The success of Downtown is important to us for so many reasons."

That explains why the works of local artists hang in Boveri Realty offices and why the company takes part in the First Friday's gallery walks in the Crossroads District. And it explains the presence of the company's professionals in a variety of organizations essential to the Urban Core - Downtown Council, The Urban Core Group, the Downtown Neighborhood Association, the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce, the Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Crossroads Community Association, to name only a few.

"Downtown Kansas City is filled with overwhelming choices and a lot of interesting, charming nooks and crannies," Christina says. "We want to be sure people know about all of them."


Niche know-how
An ever-growing reputation as the experts on Downtown means Christina and her team work with people across the metropolitan area as well as people from far outside Kansas City.

"Many of our clients have been referred by people who know us and what we do," Christina says. "A lot of our customers come from Prairie Village, Fairway, and Brookside, and others come from outside the area through relocations. They're all looking for an informed ally. That's who we are - and our niche stands out. Unlike most other real estate agents who will sell primarily in the suburbs and outside of Downtown, we specialize in the urban core. That means we have exceptional working knowledge of what's going on here in terms of developments and culture. We're passionate about the revitalization of the area. For people looking to live in the rich eclectic style and diversity of the Urban Core, our experience and expertise are invaluable."

With 15,000+ people now living in the Urban Core, some 90,000 working there, most in the Central Business District, and a growing number of people planning to make their homes in the heart of the city, Boveri Realty Group will be the first residential firm to fully represent the needs of the community.
