Conventional Loan for Duplex

[Terrell Owens]

Hello,

I am 24 years of age and I currently been thinking about my first rental property and I'm going through my options.

I work full-time as a Leasing and Marketing associate and my gross income is around 50K a year, I live with my parents and I have $0 debt. have been looking at "Conventional loans" a lot today and I'm interested in housing around the Rhode Island area, beside Massachusetts.

I think a duplex is ideal even if I don't live in one of the units. Within my circumstances, what should I be looking for in terms of housing? Cost, agents and etc.

Thank you in advance.
