My first investment property... How much do I need to buy in Southern California?

Whats a good strategy to buy my first investment property? I have about 40k saved but I also have about 40k in student loans. I was initially plannning on buying my first investment property in 2019 but Covid hit and ever since then home prices have continued to go up. I work a job that allows me to have a somewhat flexible schedule and work a lot of overtime so I was thinking about grinding for a while to save up enough to buy something but I'm not sure exactly how much I need to save. Having a goal would be helpful because I'm considering making a career change pretty soon but investing in property has always been one of my goals and I'm willing to stick it out in my current job for a bit longer if I can save enough to purchase my first property. I'm pretty much open to any property type.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
