1st time buyer: Rental or Personal property
I'm a beginner investor that is pre-qualified for a conventional loan. I've been wanting to get a duplex for some time now but keep getting out bid by other investors here in Ohio. Starting to think I should just focus on getting my own personal home, build equity and maybe later take out a cash out option for a rental later. Anybody else had/have this same delima staring off? Dont know which property to get first. I want passive income but also want to get out of an apartment. HELP!!
