Moving out of state trying to buy duplex to house hack

Long story short,. We are a family of four looking to relocate to the Austin Texas area from Michigan. Ideally I would like to house hack a duplex for the first year or two then hold as an investment. How do I go about getting a conventional or FHA loan without having any work history at the time of the move? (since I'll be staying a new job at the same time). Is this going to be an issue with bank funding? Any tips or experience with this?
