Buying First Property in This Market

[Sean Padden]

Newbie here with zero real estate investing experience. I am interested in getting started, but wasn't sure if it was a bad time to buy my first property because prices are high right now in the overall market. My plan is to house hack for my first property if that makes any difference. I recently spoke with someone who told me now is always a good time to buy, but would love to get some more opinions. Would it be better to wait until the market cools off a little to buy my first property? Does it just depend on the deal? Thanks in advance!
