Miami is still doing well, Fort Myers is adjusting and has lower real estate than 12 months ago, etc..)My simple thought, for what it is worth, is choose a place to live and not invest in:  choose the location you and your family WANT to live in ( because of the schools, taxes, weather, other family there, etc...) and then buy and do real estate there (and get whatever licenses you need once you start third party management).I wish you well!

Quote from @Robert Ruschak: Would you skip the 700+ single family houses and scale up faster into multi-family?

For LTRs, prioritize markets with population growth and strong job markets.Wherever you choose, work with an investor-friendly agent who knows the local market and can help you analyze deals.

Hey there, you can do a house hack option where you put 5 or 3.5% (FHA) down on a multi-family property.

I own a multi-family house that was converted from a single family, therefore, there is only one gas meter.

Is it a SFR or multi family property?

It’s also worth considering a multi-family property for your first deal since it can help with cash flow.

They look to have some success with taking deals full-cycle and currently have a sun belt multi-property offering that I'm researching.
