Primary vs Rental for First time Home Buyers

[Ram Anand Vutukuru]

Hi Guys, I am brand new to Bigger Pockets. And I have a super fundamental question. I saved up some money over the years and I super conflicted between buying a condo in Bay Area around 550k-600k with 20% down as Primary Residence vs a Single Family home in Austin around 400k-450k with 25% down as investment property. Can you please suggest me with your expertise.

Also, I am a first time home buyer
