Buying first home with the idea to rent out in about a year or 2

[Pax Magaway]

Hey all, second post here. So my wife and I are looking to purchase our first property, we looked into house hacking a duplex/triplex in the Portland, OR area and with prices the way they are in our area it's pretty unreasonable to get anything in our price range. We're looking at single-family homes preferably with an ADU, finished basement, ie hoping we can still house hack. Our other thought is to find a reasonable townhome/single-family home/condo in a growing/good neighborhood that would be great for a rental property when we move out in a year or two.
