Anyone Buying in New Jersey?

[J Therv]

Fairly new to the Real Estate game. I'm working full time and putting money to the side to make my first purchase sometime in 2020. Is there anyone on Biggerpockets that covers real estate in this area? Looking for advice on how to make buy my first house (preferably a 2 family) to invest. Where should my credit score be? How much for a down payment in areas like Newark/Paterson? Does the amount of money I make at my full time job matter when buying my first house?
