@Sushree MohantyHi Sushree,I am going to chime in and recommend the Tampa Bay market as well.

Kip dose not do commercial, but was ready to help with a hard money loan if needed.

Hi folks, Know Rentometer is recommended to find out what a property would rent for.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator you can use to analyze deals and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I would recommend if you are starting out, either narrow down your definition of where and the type of property you want to invest and find the investor to fund it, or the type of investor you're looking for then seek the properties they will invest in.

@Adeeb Shaheerhi, yes you can flip a house, however I would recommend treading carefully right now.  

I recommend that my clients use life insurance to plan for the future tax obligation: either there will be a death benefit to pay the tax or there will be cash value that can pay the tax.Even if the seller chooses to remain in real estate, when they buy their next property, they will start off with a fresh depreciation schedule.

Any recommendations for property managers or agents?

Not a project I would recommend for nascent real estate rehabbers; we approached it with giddy optimism typical of this time in the market cycle.
