I doubt it. I said "far away" meaning buy in a low cost of living area. Especially one that is popular and growing. Although it's convenient to live in your first property investment, it's not a requirement. Rent near work as cheaply as possible but very likely in a neighborhood where you can't afford to buy. And buy somewhere else.
