You don't have to buy your dream home in your dream location as a first property ... this concept seems to have been lost over time, but back in the day there used to be this great concept of a starter home, which was a place to sacrifice a bit, learn the ropes, and build up to your dreams.On the other hand, you could buy a rental 1st, but that would be much riskier in my opinion since you would not have as solid of a base of hands on experience or financial base as you would by buying your primary first and then turn it into a rental to buy your next home later.I speak from experience, and now have a nice portfolio of cash flowing single family homes in nice neighborhoods in Southern California.
