You can definitely do it. But, you are competing with people that do real estate full time, so keep that in mind. Don't get frustrated, I guess is my message. I would highly recommend you check out the podcasts...there are two or three that directly discuss working full time and running a side real estate investment business. There are terrific educational tools on this site.

This is one of the more recent ones.
