Advice for First House Hack

[David Herfel]

I am getting ready to get involved in real-estate for the first time. Planning to buy a duplex - quadplex in Louisville KY. Looking for advice of any kind here, but specifically I'm struggling to decide what I should be looking for in a first time house hack. Should I get a turnkey house or something to fix up? What is a good price range for a first house in Louisville knowing I have enough saved to make a large down payment if need be? 

Any & all advice welcome!
