First time home buyer| Real Estate investing

Hi BP Forum. 

I'm looking for some advice to help me get started in real estate investing. I wanted to take advantage as a first time home buyer using FHA to buy a multifamily house or perhaps a duplex in NYC.

I just hit 30 and currently work as a nurse, so ideally commute time into the city is 30-40 min. My plan is buying a duplex and rent out another unit as midterm rental for travel nurses. 

I would greatly appreciate any advice or connection. 


Thanks in advance.
