First Rental Property - Where to Buy?

[Jason Wade]

So I am looking for my first rental property in Philadelphia. I currently live in NJ but my girlfriend lives in philly and I've moved back and forth from the city for a few times now. I'm finally ready to buy and get into real estate. So I'm looking to use the FHA house-hack strategy where I live in a unit and rent the other(s) out, livd in it for a year and rent it out completely.

If you were in this situation where would you look to buy? And where would you look to buy regardless if it was not going to be a house-hack scenario?
