80K cash: Tell me how you would invest it in your market

[William Huston]

Hello All, 

I am a current RE investor with 5 rental units, which were all previous bought houses to live in all over the USA. Now that i am out of the military working in a new W2 career, i am trying to get back into the RE investing and actually understand how to invest more appropriately and correctly compared to just purchasing houses that i would like to live in...

Currently i have about 80k saved up for my next investment deal and just feel like im coming up short on anything even coming close to 1% rule, so to see if there are ways to invest it, i figured i would ask the public how they would go about investing the money, because i am always up for learning something new.

If possible, could you throw a quick example or maybe a short answered deal you could possibly go buy today in your own market to get an idea...

I am currently searching up to 2hrs from the Tampa, FL area.
