Looking to buy my first house hack in NYC, I have nearly reached my goal of money saved for a down payment, however, is the NYC market too hot to buy right now? Is it better to wait for prices to come down?

I'm a newcomer to the real estate game looking to buy my first rental property. I live in NYC and have been looking at different options about buying my first rental, such as house hacking, buying upstate and buying in another state.

Is buying a rental out of state a good option for a new and inexperienced buyer? or should I keep looking for something closer to home?

Any feedback would be a great help.
