*Need Advice!* What to buy as our first place?

[Danielle Clark]

My husband and I will be finally in a position to buy a house here in January. We would like to either buy a home to do a live in flip and sell in 6 months to a year, buy 2 condos to fix up and rent out 1 until we move into a new place then rent out both, buy a duplex that may need work and rent out other unit until we move out then keep and rent out both, or buy nicer home pay it down as a soon as possible and use the equity in that home to get a loan and do more flipping or buying rentals. Our goal is to have rentals but we think to be able to pay for rentals we need to start out flipping homes. So we can't decide where to start! Any advice would be great! Thank you.
