To me the info is all outdated on most if not all of the CE courses, find the one that you can complete in the shortest amount of time, and get back to investing.

I pitched the idea of me running the operational day to day to get experience, while they pay the mortgage.

Anything I want a tenant to tell me about when they move in, I check for at the renewal. 

Syracuse would be more central for me.

Not sure how much it would benefit me in the long run?

Hey Allen, welcome, I am both an investor (mainly LTR) and realtor so I can give you a couple of tips if needed, especially within the Broward area.

Feel free to send me listings you have in mind (don't worry, not planning to buy) and I can give you an idea of the neighborhood and what's nearby. 

For a residential (1-4 unit) deal, a "buy and hold" duplex for me (without driving value via renovations/BRRRR'ing) would be CoC between 8-12% and/or about $250 per door.
