While we really liked the house, it's location and THINK we could afford to buy, we'd like to have time to explore all of our options. 

I would have to know your risk tolerance, your desired cash on cash returns, your location requirements to see if what you are trying to do is realistic or not.

I have a couple investment properties myself and I'm a CPA at a large REIT so I can review your numbers, as well as offering feedback on location, price, etc.

Jacksonville seems to have less MF on the MLS and less property taxes.Any advice, experiences, or thoughts would be helpful before we finally pick a location.

How desirable is the location? 

The location is Sully's House - 1501 N Dayton St.I recommend checking us out on FB and Meetup.com.

Yes Anthony I would recommend that you deal with commercial real estate agents to help you locate properties (there are other ways to locate commercial properties without an agent as well) and commercial lenders to help you finance the properties.There many Commercial lenders and real estate agents here on Bigger Pockets that are very good. 

Do you have any other suggestions on locations?

So far, the only place I've seen to make edits is on the profile page, however, even when I click the little blue pencil, I'm unable to edit the image, only the other basic information like my location and bio are editable.

Good locations, add value, cash flow, prudent debt, and reserves.We invest in individual properties, not the entire real estate market.
