in what niche to invest $100.000?

[Simo Anejarn]

I am a chemist , and i want to change completely  the direction of my life, to be a real estate investor.

i read a lot of books, to get more knowledge,and have a solid picture before i start involving investing in real estate. According to my knowledge, this business is very diversified , each category has many variables that are related to each other,wich makes it hard for beginners to take a good action.

i m looking for guidance and answer for my following question.

i have $100.000 to invest,  based on your experience, and knowledge , would you tell me, in wich direction and steps,  i have to take to penetrate  successfully the world of real estate investment?

 Any answer is appreciated.

     thanks
