New to Real Estate....

Hi all,

I am new to real estate and wanted to learn more about the general process of obtaining homes, investing in properties, etc.

I understand one must get pre-qualified to see what rates are available but I was curious to know how I could potentially leverage my $$ by using the banks and/or taking out private loans. I also have access to 50-80k as startup capital, if necessary.

My goal in real estate is to create residual income as well as invest in newer, developed regions and perhaps have tenants, etc.

Any advice, experiences, etc would be of great help!!

Thanks,

Aaron
