My First Investment

Kristee Badet
Posted

Hi everyone, 

I am looking for any new information or tips of becoming a real estate investor. But I want to know, is it better to buy an investment property first or my own home first? 
My fiancé and I have been saving and working on our scores in order to buy our first home. But I want to get into an investment property also. I’m worried that I’ll get “stuck” in my home where I can’t get into an investment one.  If I house hack and live on the property, I sacrifice living in my own home which has been my main goal over the last couple years. 
Any advice? Any tips?
