Starting Out

[Lance Frasier]

Evening everyone,

I am looking to get started in the world of investment real estate. I am still wet behind the ears on the subject, so I plan on spending the next six months reading and attending meetings of my local real estate investment club (Northern Virginia). I have about $100,000 in cash that I can use to begin investing into real estate with and I was wondering if this is a sufficient amount to get started with? I will still be working full-time while investing. Realizing that your rate of return is dependent on the type of project completed, what is the average rate of return for a real estate investment?

Thank You
