First Rental property

[Miyako Boyer]

I am in the process of saving up money. By March I will be ready to purchase. While saving, I am studying and researching the real estate business to learn more before I buy. I want to start in either Nashville or Cleveland as I live in both cities. Which would be a better city to start in? How much money is a good amount to save to purchase my first property? I would love to do this with little to no money down if possible. What ways can I make that happen ? Also what type of home should I start off with first?
