18 years old looking to buy first property

[Levi Cartwright]

Hey everyone, I am 18 years old and moving out of my parent's house and up to Washington(I live in Nevada). I want to get started investing as soon as possible which will be my first residence as well (househack). I don't want to rent for any longer than I have to since I want people to rent from me. Any ideas that y'all can share with me I'd appreciate. I have about 20k saved up and my job is going to be paying around 86k and I will be recieving raises. 150k or so is my budget for my first home/investment and I think househacking is going to be how I start. What should I be looking for? Is househacking a good way for me to start?
