Getting over the hump and buying my second home

Hi Bigger Pockets Family, I purchased a townhome for around $145,000 last September. Since the townhome was move in ready, my fiancé and I have spent the last 7 months doing smaller rehab projects (staining decks, popcorn ceiling removal, kitchen backsplash, new paint and bathroom renovation). My fiancé is about to graduate law school and we will finally have a second income. Since she is not on the current mortgage, I wanted to reach out to the bigger pockets network and ask for advice on taking the next step of buying our second property and first rental property. I have been interested in real estate investing for a few years now and am excited for this process to finally come into fruition. Since I am only 25 and very much a novice at real estate, any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks Bigger Pockets Family!!! Best, Adam
