Construction is officially underway on three new homes along N. 21st Street, the latest phase of the North Star Development in Kansas City, Kansas. The project continues Fran Sutton Homes' work bringing quality, affordable new construction to the Quindaro Corridor in Wyandotte County.
Each new home is built to Energy Star standards and offered with down payment assistance up to $40,000 for qualifying buyers, part of an ongoing effort to make homeownership accessible in a neighborhood that has long been overlooked for investment.
Why It Matters
The North Star Development sits within the Land Bank program in partnership with the Unified Government of Wyandotte County, which offers a 95% tax rebate for 10 years on qualifying new construction. For families in Kansas City, KS, that means new, move-in-ready homes at a price point that's increasingly hard to find.
Fran Sutton, owner of Fran Sutton Homes, has been building in the area for years with the goal of turning vacant lots into homes for working families — bringing new neighbors, new investment, and renewed pride to the neighborhood.
