First time buyer questions
Hello everyone, my name is Kenzy and I'm planning on making my first duplex purchase before I start school back up in September of 2016 so I can live with minimal housing costs. I started learning about real estate investing about a month ago and came across this great site recently. I'm looking for a duplex in the Tacoma, Washington area for around $190,000-$210,000 and was wondering, if I use an FHA loan about how much money would I need for closing costs and other fees after the initial 3.5% down?
Any and all feedback/advice is greatly appreciated!
