Scott, you just set off about 1,000 keyword notifications from those on BP who will now private message you and post in this forum a slanted angle of where to invest on the hope and glimmer that you give them the money to invest in them. 

Truth be told, your question is to vague. There is no information at all about you. do you make $10M a year or $50k a year. Would that impact your investing strategy? Have you ever owned a home, a self storage facility, a MHP? Would that experience impact your decision?

Are you looking for income vs. equity?  Without someone knowing the ins and outs of this, the information you receive will be just someones opinion but probably provides no strategy or path on how you should invest the $
