Check the events pages here on BiggerPockets, local KC investing Facebook groups, and meetup dot com for real estate.

You can also contact local Realtors for assistance; for example, here in Charlotte, I work with clients who are not ready to buy or rent.

I know a local PM company here charges $7 per property per day=$210/mo for basically the same service.

Connect with me here on BiggerPockets and I'll get you connected locally with an entire support group. 

Once you pick a market connect with an local agent, PM, contractor etc in the area. 

Its also more cost efficient compared to NY in terms of fee's and overall costs to set up LLC.When I set my LLC up in Fl it took literally 15 minutes and you will need to get your Tax ID/IEN set up so you can get your business checking account set up with a local FL bank. 

Fly out there, drive the streets, meet with potential team members, talk with local investors, etc. - Not to mention you'll avoid the headaches of California Tenant friendly laws!
