How can I start BIG with US$50K in the bank?

[Javier Cuello]

Any suggestions on what are the best ways I can use 50 K to start a Real Estate Investment Journey? I have about a year listening and learning about the subject. Multi-Family and Self Storage Units properties sound really interesting to me but I do not really know if I can obtain the capital with a down payment with the funds mentioned to actually invest in them. I have friends that I have talked about the subject and actually asked 2 or 3 to join me to have 200 K to invest but they are not willing to put their money in this industry or at least not for now. I have no hands on experience on Real Estate but I am definitely filled with keen interest to learn about it from close quarters.   The market I would be based in right now is Hialeah, Florida, nevertheless I am open to exploring beyond Florida or even beyond the US.
