Best advice for a novice investor needed

[Sergio Dorval]

Good morning everyone, 

it's been a year since I last showed up here, looking for  advice from investors with proven success records in real estate. I took your advice but was too timid to take the first step and dive into the investing world. However, now I am ready but still need your guiance and mentorship. The following is my current financial profile in a nutshell: 

Credit Score: 709

Cash in hand: 50K

Salary : 74K

Monthly living expenses: $1500.00

Debt: None

Residence: New York City

Marital Status: Single, no kids

What would you do if you were in my situation? What RE investment strategy would you advice me to take? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. 

Sergio.
