23 year old looking to buy a property in DC for 350k
I am currently 23 years, looking to buy a property inside of DC between 330-380k. I am making about 75 k a year, and ideally, I would like to buy a 2/3 bedroom to house hack and offset my mortgage cost. From what I have seen on the market, my budget may not get me much of anything, but I would like to know if there is anywhere in DC that I may be able to afford. I would like to stay out of the SE area for safety reasons, but I know I will be looking at mostly up and coming areas. I have considered going through NACA for their great interest deals and no down payment program, but will this take me out of the running for these competitive properties. I am open to reno jobs. please help. I would like to buy within the next 3-6 months.
