Advice for first step choice?

I'm kinda in a pickle here.. So I'm currently looking to move out and get my own place and house hack a duplex. Well the duplex I'm interested in is very cheap so my savings so far I'm close to 20% of the purchase price a few more months and I would have that 20% I just don't know what would be a better choice do I keep saving for the 20% and buy it as a rental and then save a little more and get a FHA for another duplex? Or should I just use my FHA on this property and save up for the next year to help with getting my next property?
