Newbie Long Distance Investor Looking at Florida

[Nicholas Lenczyk]

Hello all.  I am currently a resident in New Jersey looking to invest in South Florida.  I am in the process of getting a preapproval loan and wanted to obtain two others to find the best rates if anyone has someone they may recommend.  I am also in search of investor friendly and experienced realtors and a property management companies with the same background.  Currently, I'm interest in residential properties only that are single or multi residence and I have no experience buying a home at all.  The area I am interest in is Jenson Beach to Juno Beach, Martin County, Palm Beach County area in general but am open minded and willing to take great advice from those with more experience if there are other areas to consider.  I am familiar with area in general and plan to have multiple properties to replace my salary long term.  This is also an area I'd like to move to eventually after getting established and becoming financially free.  Thank you!
