Investing - Tampa bay area

[Amber Goding]

Hello! I was looking to see if anyone has any insight on investing around the tampa bay area. I am looking to get into it and have read a few books, however that only gives you so much info. Would love to try to network with people in the surrounding area to hear about experiences and advice!

I have invested south of Tampa, in my hometown.  Tampa is a pretty expensive market, however there is a lot or growth east of Tampa (Brandon/Riverview).  If you are looking for older distressed properties Tampa will have several properties however they will be quite expensive.  The St Pete area was getting a lot of the younger "millennial" generation.
