What is the best way to go about buying my first home?

Chan Park
Posted

I am currently located in Edmond, Ok and with my apartment lease coming to an end in July 2021, I'd like to purchase a 3 bed 2 bath, live in one and rent out the other two. My credit score and incomes are solid, but my issue is employment history. What would you recommend in going about buying my first home?

Here's my situation: 

Income 1: ~$45,000 - W2 (Employment history begins August 2020)

Income 2: ~$35,000 - Self-Employment (Employment history begins Jan 2020 - was $7k in 2020.)

I graduated in Dec 2019 with a masters degree unrelated to current position, but directly related to the company.

Credit Score: 750

$50K Student loans (fafsa)

Thanks for your time and help & I'd be happy to make any clarifications.
