Hello Deon,

I believe that you first need some work history to buy a new house and maybe try to get a multiple family house with an FHA Loan... Or if your state or city provides it do the first time home buyer program. So your biggest foe I think is going to be your work history. You can also approach a multi family that pays itself off with a 25% down payment, some banks won't ask for your work history at the point be cause the property takes care of it self... Good luck
