@Jeffrey Daniels By reasonable I mean something I could probably afford, i.e. <400k. 

@Pamela Sandberg Thanks for the info! Seems like the best thing to do then would be to get in touch with an agent.

Hello everyone,

I graduated from college a few weeks ago and thought I would finally make a BiggerPockets account. I will soon be starting a new job as an actuary and am looking for advice on how (and when) to structure my first deal.

Based on what I have read recently on this site, as well as what I've seen while browsing listings, it seems like it's relatively difficult to find a reasonably priced small multifamily property in the Valley so "house-hacking" as beginner's strategy doesn't look feasible. If this is true, would it be better to start by buying a SFH as a primary residence or are there other options I might consider?

I would greatly appreciate any insight you can give into the current state of the Phoenix market and/or suggestions for how best to get started.

Thanks! -Jack
