Best places in Florida to buy an investment property?

[Eldin Kalic]

Hi all,

I'm looking to invest in a property in Florida.  I'm doing my research on which areas to target where I wont have much difficulty finding tenants, AirBnb's, etc.   I haven't honed in a specific city yet but I wanted to see what some of you experienced Florida investors think.  What is the ideal area to target?  Coast side or Gulf Side?  

On the Gulf side I was looking into Clearwater, and Sarasota.  Coast side: Panama City, Fort Lauderdale, Daytona, Fort Meyers.

Any and all helpful insight is welcome!  Thanks!
