New Investor from Pittsburgh, PA

[Jeremy Taggart]

Hi everyone, 

I am from Moon Township, PA about a half hour from Pittsburgh. I am finishing up my degree and will be graduating in the spring and I am looking to get started in investing after I graduate. 

I am planning to start working my full-time job while I'm still in school so hopefully I will have enough money for a down payment on a house by the time I graduate. I am looking to get a multi-family house with a FHA loan and rent the other unit/s out. If there are any agents in the area that work with investors or wholesalers that could help me find a good multi-family property it would be greatly appreciated! My backup option if I am unable to find a good deal on a multi-family would be to do a live-in flip on a single family house using the BRRR strategy.

My only concern about the live-in flip would be if would still be able to get the FHA loan since the house would be a fixer-upper. If anyone knows if this would work let me know!

I am very much looking forward to getting started!
