At the risk of saying what you already know, the current market is so hot - cash is the winner. If you are looking to build a rental portfolio, you might check out properties that are tenant-occupied with good (read: paying) tenants. Those properties IMO are too much trouble for flippers as the tenants are usually looking to stay - especially with such a housing shortage.
Since you're new to the area, drive as many areas as possible to get familiar and make a play for suburban areas that may not have quite the appreciation of many in-town neighborhoods.
Best of luck! You'll rock this!
