21 years old, $30,000...where to start

Hello BP community, I am new to the world of real-estate investing but I eager to get started. I will be graduating college this spring and have a stock portfolio of $30,000 that want to use for my first deal. I live in the Westchester NY area which I realize may not be ideal for my first investment especially with only $30,000 but I am interested to see if anyone may have some ideas of how and where to get started in this exciting journey. Ideally I would like to get started in small multi families and could be interested to an FHA loan under the right circumstance. Look forward to hearing from this awesome community!

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Best, 

Richie
