Newbie, high income, not a lot of time - Where to start?

[Brian M.]

I'm in my young 30s in a high-paying tech sales with position no plans of leaving my 9-5 any time soon. I have about $150k sitting on the sidelines and have investments in equities and a bit of crypto, but want to get more exposure to real estate outside the house I live in. Being in sales my income is volatile but I typically have an extra $50k-$150k/year left over to invest each year. My goal is long-term wealth. While cash flow is important, I just want to at least break even while maximizing appreciation. I'd love to do BRRRR but realistically I just don't have the time between my job and other life events going on.

Considering I'm very green to REI, where would be the best place to start? I've thought about getting an SFH (ideally one that's pretty turn-key) and hold for the long term. I also just started reading about syndication.

Thoughts? Opinions?
