You'll find amazing people and great advice on this site.As a beginner in RE investing, and if you are not a homeowner yet, I'll advice you to buy a 3-4 flat with a 3.5% FHA loan and if the building needs work, you can also do a 203K construction loan.If you work the numbers well, the additional rents could pay for most of the expenses of the building and you could live for free in the smallest unit.I bought that way and I have a lot of clients buying just like that.Let me know if you'd like to talk further!
