In the past, having just $10,000 was not nearly enough to invest in real estate. However, some services now allow you to invest in commercial real estate opportunities without being licensed or accredited — meaning you can now invest in potentially lucrative CME ventures. You can also put your money into a REIT, which we discussed earlier.
Just remember that real estate can be a risky play. Know what you are getting into ahead of time before you buy into an investment or you could wind up taking a significant loss.
