Best way to buy a home?

Is it possible to get approved for a first time home buyers loan if you have good credit (715), enough money for a down payment, but your monthly income isn’t a lot?

I feel like buying a house let’s say $300,000.... the mortgage and monthly payments would be less than rent which runs $2,000+ a month for 2 bedrooms where I live.

I was thinking it might be smarter to invest in a home or a condo and not just throw away 2 grand plus a month on someone else’s property.

My income with my partners is about $4,000-5,000 a month..... which isn’t a ton obviously. especially where I live.

however as I said my credit is good and his is as well, and we have enough in savings for a down payment.

But I’m not sure if I (we?) qualify for a loan and would be able to buy a home. I obviously will go talk to my bank. Just wondering the best way to go about this if anyone has advice
