If you want some very broad strokes that are asset class specific, but not location specific.Highest risk and return to lowest risk and return, offices is at the top.

If you are skilled in each of the areas above, and you have enough in reserves to cover the costs of when things do not go as planned, then you can likely attract money from private money lenders who want to get a return on their money and they see lending to you as a low risk way of earning a better return than in the other passive investing options they have. 

But IMO the risk does not come from leverage.

That’s why you get a discounted interest rate and a lower downpayment, because owne occupant properties are low risk. 

If so you should be able to cancel but if you are doing it out of the inspection period you are stuck and could run the risk of losing your earnest money if you put any down. 

I have a bit of experience with co-living investors, having been involved in several co-living investments for five years.

I hope you found the Google reviews before getting involved.

It's a lot quicker, and you can minimize the risk substantially.

My strategy incorporates asset protection measures like LLCs, specific trusts as well as professional property management to spread risk and ensure quality operations.As well as using tax codes to my benfiitSection 179, IRC Section 162, Cost Segregation and Bonus Depreciation and later 1031 them out for larger projects. 

That being said, I had to translate a lot of documents on my own for the loan process, so there was more effort involved.
