want to own my own home

hello investors i'am kenny from massachusetts. I am really very interested in being a real estate investor. I am 45 and have let so much time pass me by already due to overcoming hardships in life, but im as ready as i will ever be to get this career rolling! my question is im currently renting a beautiful 3 level townhouse for 1,200.00 a month. I made a promise to myself to raise my now 2 year old little boy in a safe and nice home. However i want to buy my very first home via first time buyer, i dont have money for a down payment and i dont want to make this decision effect me in my  real estate investing. I guess what im saying what is the best way to buy my first home?? should i buy a multi family home and live in that for a couple years or buy a single family home?? I know if i got a morgage i could live in my own home cheaper or what i am paying already. Is there a program out there that could help me without a down payment? honestly working my current job its unrealistic that i will ever have money for a down payment ( hence just one of the reasons why i want to make investing in real estate work) so i am able to better provide for my family!!  so any response would be very helpful and i would be very grateful for advice!! thanks so much!!!
