Newbie investor looking for advice
Hi, my husband and I are new to real estate investing and looking to get into something that is passive. I have been reading a lot and listening to podcasts, and wanted to get some advice on where we should start. We both have full time jobs with young kids, so don’t have a lot of time to do hands on investing. So I don’t think short term rentals, multi family, etc would work for us. Syndications seem risky. What is the best way to get started in passive investing that is not super high risk? If we just wanted to dip our toes and trial it out with 25K, should we look into notes, real estate funds, or something else?

I know this isn't the answer you want, but if you don't have much time, don't want to take on much risk, and only have $25K... I don't know that there is a slam dunk option. You could look into REITs / index funds. But that assumes you are in this for the long term and are OK with the usual market volatility.
