@Monica Labrada, If you're interested in investing in multifamily in the greater Tampa area, having a local team in place can be one of the most important factors in making sure your rental property is profitable.Having worked with @steverozenberg, Bigger Pockets contributor, professional real estate investor, and Head of Investment Education at Mynd Management, I've learned that not having a local team can be one of the biggest drains on investors return on investment.

One is that the education in Berry Hills schools seems to be very good.

When your SELF EDUCATION matches your HUNGER you will do GREAT things.

You want to be educated but make sure to dive in as soon as you can.

@James SampsonYou can start with podcasts and books for your education but I would suggest finding a mentor, preferably local that you can work with.

I do have the luxury of having some family and friends with cash willing to invest with me but I want to be rock solid on my education and approach before taking on something like that with good acquaintances especially family.

Bigger Pockets is a great place for education and networking. 

As you start to tour similar homes though, you'll start to see some of the same stuff enough to where you can make an educated guess at least!

If you are brand new, spend a couple of weeks educating yourself to make sure wholesaling is the strategy you are interested in.
