Looking to Purchase a Single Family or Multi-Family Residence in Wake County

[Anthony Pirolli]

My name is Anthony and I am currently looking to purchase a property in Wake County. I see there are not a lot of Multi-Families available here so my course of action would be to purchase a single family I would live in with my fiance and then later on purchase another single family to start my business. The ideal scenario would be to find a multi-family that the two of us could live in and then rent out the other side but it does not look very feasible currently with the low amount of multi-families on the market. 

I could easily afford 550k+ on my income and fiance will be starting her pharmacy career somewhere around the area.

Any suggestions on moving forward and starting to build equity? I am currently renting in Fayetteville.

Thank you
