Brookside East Development

The old saying in real estate is true: what matters is location, location, location. It’s the first question I ask potential buyer client. And what drives commercial real estate prices in a certain location? It’s the condition of the properties; the convenient, sought after area;  the nearby residents who will support the local businesses; the street atmosphere, landscaping, and walk score.  Thanks to local real estate tycoon Butch Rigby and a handful of other local investors, “Brookside East” is on the brink of becoming a sought after destination for new businesses..and in turn will should home values nearby.

Butch Rigby is the owner of Rigby Real Estate Development. He and his partners have turned their attention to 63rd Street and spent about $3 million to acquire four tired or vacant office buildings, part of a $10 million investment between Oak and Holmes. Butch has achieved commercial redevelopment successes elsewhere in central Kansas City and downtown.
