Navigating Wichita’s Unique Property Landscape

The “Specials” Factor

Unlike many other Kansas cities, Wichita and its suburbs (like Derby and Andover) rely heavily on Special Assessments—or “Specials”—to fund infrastructure. These are taxes for sewers, streets, and lights that are added to your property tax bill. Many national lenders miss these in their DTI calculations, leading to rejected loans at the last minute. We calculate these on Day 1.

Aerospace & Military Specialist Lending

We understand the unique pay structures of Wichita’s biggest employers. We offer streamlined income verification for:

  • Spirit AeroSystems & Textron Aviation: We understand overtime and union contract nuances.
  • McConnell Air Force Base: VA Loan specialists with $0 down options and no monthly PMI.
  • Koch Industries: Custom solutions for relocating professionals.

  • USD 259 (Schools): ~44.9%
  • City of Wichita: ~28.7%
  • Sedgwick County: ~25.1%
  • State of Kansas: ~1.3%

Our team provides a full estimated breakdown of your monthly payment—including these taxes and insurance—so you know your true cost of ownership before you sign.
