Rookie Investor in Boston

Hi Everyone, I'm Olubiyi Ojo(Boston, MA) and recently have really engaged in learning everything I can about real estate. As of right now, I'm currently analyzing 2br 2bd condos on the MLS in Plymouth county. I wondered if it was worth using the 3.5 % down payment on the condo vs. an actual home? I'm also looking for a creative way of finance this future deal with a partnership or private money. Any insight is welcome

@Olubiyi Ojo

If condo is all you can afford now then there is nothing wrong with using FHA loan for it, my first purchase was a townhome.
