Finding Target Neighborhood for Multifamily in Tampa

Hi guys!

I'm wondering how people decided what neighborhood(s) to invest in and how I can figure that out long distance. I'm going to be new to Tampa area but I won't be moving there until September. I've been devouring article after article about multi family units and the more I read, the more I realize that is the area I want to focus on. I'm going to be using my VA Loan and would like to start the pre approval process right about now. I'm going to be working in Ruskin, FL. Should I rent for a few months so I can have time to get to know the neighborhoods and areas? Thoughts, ideas, advice?

Thanks!
