Advice and tips for a first time rental property investor?

I am 24 saving up for my first property to purchase at the end of 2021 / early 2022 in the Long Island, NY area.

I’d like to save up around $50K in my HYSA for a property <$400K in LI. Does this sound reasonable?

Does anyone have any advice on investing in the LI area (best location, SFH v MFH) or just general first time rental property buying advice?

Thanks all

One of my top talents just put in his two weeks notice and I had nothing to offer him to stay. I told upper management this was going to happen!

I still believe i work at a good place but i feel like we’re losing focus. I feel my boss is leaving soon. It’s a mess.
