This is a great forum to find like minded investors, realtors, financing, tips/tricks.loopholes. 

Any tips on how I should potentially navigate this differently?

Feel free to reach out if you have any tips or info to share.

I’m confident this is a great deal but would like to get some pointers/tips from seasoned investors.

My main hobbies are playing golf, video games, and reading about real estate.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

Tampa has a lot of draws, to name a few is Beach, Boating, Golf, Casino, Intl Airport/Biz Travel, Busch Gardens, NFL/NHL/MLB, Concerts/Festivals, and more.I would say Sarasota is a submarket of Tampa but has its own attributes as well. 

But I'm not too sure where to look for them or how to find those bigger buyers.Does anybody have any tips or advice on how to find these bigger buyers?

A few tips to get started: focus on networking with local investors, attend meetups or join online forums, and consider reading books like "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor" or "Rich Dad Poor Dad."

Any advice on whats the best way to reach out and any risks or tips to consider before investing in a property that needs a lot of work. 

If they put up any sort of resistance, that could be a cue to start digging a little deeper and documenting a bit more thoroughly (hence the doorbell camera coverage tip I put first - installing the cameras right away and then having the new lease conversation with the tenants afterward is very easy to frame as "I'm just a new owner putting some TLC into the property and doing my due diligence on the leases/tenants"; talking to your residents first, finding out they have extra people living there who aren't on the lease, and then installing cameras around the property could set you up for a very adversarial relationship with your inherited tenants).
