How would you use 300k to start investing in real estate?

Hi everyone!

I am a 24-year-old business owner in FL and I've been looking to get started with investing for two years now. I have around 300k saved for real estate investment purposes. I've learned SO much from reading BP forums, attending boot camps and also personal research, but am still feeling a bit stuck on where to start. For a while, my plan was STRs in the South Florida market, but I've recently taken a huge interest in section 8 investing and have been learning a lot about it. I'm thinking of starting with conventional loans to secure 20% down payments and then eventually shifting to hard money lending. To the seasoned investors out there, what would your first move be if you were in my shoes? Thoughts on starting out with section 8? Super thankful for any and all advice. Thank you (:
