buying as investment or second home to "invest," requires 10-25% down payment so often times people start in their own market because owner occupied 1-4 unit programs are 0-5% down payment which is more feasible for most people unless you've been saving for a really long time and have capital to stack to go on a war rampage, in terms of investing.Best of luck.

She's terrified though, and I can't seem to convince her of why this method is an excellent opportunity to enter into real estate with minimal cost compared to, say putting down 20% on a traditional mortgage for a single family home, solely for us.
