Should I buy near Jersey City (own/ rental in the future)

[Bony Mathew]

My wife and I are moving to New Jersey area that is closer to NYC. She is starting her anesthesia school and I will be working in New York City. We discussed our options and decided it would be better for us to buy a place rather than renting. Our goal is to later own move out of this place in about 3 or so years and keep it as an investment property! Can you guys suggest areas near Hoboken/ Jersey City that you would recommend? Also if you guys have any past experiences would love to hear it! Thank you guys in advance!
