First time homebuyer: Advice

[Lily Madrigal]

Hello, all! I am looking to buy a townhouse or condo in Dallas, Texas because I need to be there for the year and then am hoping to convert the property into a rental property once the year is up. But I am not sure where to Start!! What type of loans should I be looking into? And what exactly is the process after the year to convert into a rental? Any advice is welcome 🙏🏼
