Hemi.
My eight inch Newtonian Telescope cost under five hundred dollars and added to that figure was the cost of a coma corrector which was around three fifty I think...with additional tube rings the thing still cost under a thousand dollars...new.
There is little to fault with it.
And I have still not adjusted it.
Even a six inch does a fine job...I used one for years and would still be using it but I wore it out☺.
You could start with a long fl six which will see you there for about three fifty bucks but I bet you will be happy if you go for the eight.
F5 or F4? Mine is F5 and fast enough for me. I have no experience with a F4 but I doubt they are beyond management.
