Well just because you have a good amount of money I wouldn't just "jump" into real estate. That's one of the quickest ways to loose what you have, through bad investments and scams. Honestly I would take the time to learn what type of investing you would be interested in. The term "real estate " is so general, there are different types of investing (buy and hold, fix and flip, wholesaling, etc) pick one or two and focus on that. With those different types comes different strategies (low and no money down, partnerships, hard money lenders, etc). To be honest I wouldn't even try to touch the 100k. So my suggestion to you would be self education (a lot). That's where bigger pockets comes into play with podcast, forums, blogs and networking with seasoned vets. Let me know if you have any questions and remember no question is dumb.
