House hacking in Miami, FL

[Kevin Betancourt]

Hi, I am new to the Bigger Pockets community. I am based out of Miami, FL and I am looking to buy my first property out of school. My ideal situation is to be able to house hack and live in a unit of a small multi family property (duplex, triplex, fourplex) with conventional financing. Although I make a decent income, the price point in Miami is very high and making it difficult to find something that makes sense. Any suggestions on how to approach this?Would it make more sense to go in another direction with a lower price point such as a single family home or an apartment to get started and then jump into multi family properties once I have more capital and cash flow?
