Beginning Real estate in a different state

[Josephine Reimer]

I am trying to get real estate investment started but I move a lot for work, in fact by next year I may have to move out of the country for a few years, and when I'm back in the states I will move around about every 2-3 years.

Any advice on what is the best way to begin real estate investing? Should I partner with someone who is in a more stable location? Has anyone had success owning property while they are out the country or in a different state?

I am currently in Washington D.C. and I'm not finding any real estate that is suitable for a beginner as I would want something around 100-140K to start out with.

Thanks!
