If You Had to Start Over with $10K, How Would You Invest in Real Estate?

Let’s say you’re starting from scratch—no network, no prior deals, just $10K to work with. How would you use it to break into real estate? Would you wholesale, partner up, buy a small rental, or go all in on marketing?

Curious to hear what strategies you’d use in today’s market! Drop your thoughts below

You don't. 10k is not enough to invest in real estate. You can't even BRRRR your way up anymore with 100k in capital in 2025.

And for all who said wholesaling, they forget to mention that close to 100% fail.

If you only have 10k what you need is cash flow and real estate is not very good at cash flow. Businesses are primarily designed for cash flow. Buy a camper, paint it black, put two college kids inside and sell coffee outside events. Or start selling stuff on TikTok. Or flip couches. Or put an AI to work..

Then you can start thinking about real estate
