Let me know if you want to talk about either market or need any boots on the ground. 

I would reach out to a local agent, who has area knowledge and can be your boots on the ground there  (BP Agent Finder: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...) 

My company has returned annual net returns in excess of 20% for our passive investors over the last 6 years by investing in the markets I mentioned above, taking a boots to the ground approach, and utilizing a team that has billions of $ in real estate transnational experience. 

I got to the point where I paid and attended one of David Lindahl's "Multifamily Million" boot camp that was held in Los Angeles.

I also think a 14% management fee is too high, your boots on the group should run you around 10-12% in my opinion. 

Happy to help as boots on the ground partner here in Kansas City...

They will be your boots on the ground ensuring occupancy stays high, maintenance issues are dealt with, and the property is being maintained through scheduled capital improvement projects that ensure your longterm value will be sustained or increased. 

Do you want to operate in your local area and be "boots on the ground" and leverage your knowledge, or do you want to focus out of state where you might find better opportunities. 

Please share with me as well, I have looked at a number of properties in south Florida but I would like to talk to an experienced Realtor with boots on the ground there.

I wish I could have booted most of them when I took over the building but that's not the way it works.
