Hey everyone, my name is Fatima Champagne and I'm new BiggerPockets as well as the real estate investing scene. My current goal is to obtain a duplex in the Philadelphia or surrounding area, with me living on one side and renting out the other. I realize that patience will be one my greatest assets during this endeavor, so I'm looking forward to all the tips and specifics I pick up along the way. If anyone could provide guidance on how to get started - it would be greatly appreciated. I understand that I need a down payment of 20%, but other than that I'm unsure of the next steps to take.
