We owned 3 rental properties in the past (NOT IN FL) where we happened to live in the same town as our properties. We had a real estate firm do the "vetting" on our renters, but managed the properties ourselves after that. If an option in FL, why not consider. They do all the credit check/background footwork) and when there is an issue, just have the tenants call/email you directly if you are located in the same area.
