First time investor, and home buyer!

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to buy my first house in about a year, in which I'll have 20k to put down on a house of around 80k. Now my question is, would it be better to directly rent out the whole house OR move in and have a roomate?

I feel like continuing to put 1k a month on top of the mortagage after having it rented it isn't a bad idea. But I could just start saving for another house while collecting profit. I'm not really sure which route, if any to take.

Suggestions? :mrgreen:
