I strongly suggest following @Nathan G.'

You're only as strong as your weakest link ... select your partners wisely.

I sold a home to an investor in April that’s right downtown and is already outperforming all of the rental projections we had done so I know that demand is still very strong.

Also having strong cash reserves can ease the burden of negative cash flow certain months if you are trying to ride some appreciation.

97% occupancy rates, strong rent growth, general appreciation, it's just a good place to be investing.

Based on the numbers, your cashflow would be very strong as well.

The upside is that they provide fast closing and interest only payments, which would keep the cash flow on the first property strong.

Florida, and Tampa Bay area specifically, has a lot going for it in terms of continued population growth, strong rental market, solid job market, great weather and the like.

I would strongly advise you to hire an attorney who speaks your native language.

I feel strongly that it's a desirable location (private wooded lot on a river, plenty of nearby attractions) and should be able to do well.I'm planning on managing it myself but want to start off with good processes and methods.
