What would be your analysis of each of the investment categories I mentioned.I had used High Yield or Leverage as an example you can assume any riskier asset class publicly traded in the stock market. what I am seeking is a way to assess say the risk involved in investing in a specified category versus another and the commensurate return (reward) I should expect keeping non-financial aspects out of the decision.So again, for example, hypothetically I invest this 30k in a Public REIT I should expect maybe a 5% (assumed with no basis) return YOY or I buy a High Yield ETF that returns 11% (again assumed with no basis) versus if I leverage this to buy a residential property then how to asses this on the same risk-reward spectrum and compare the two?

I would urge you to speak to as many advisors as you can to see who is the best fit.

This was a very unique situation that turned out awesome for everyone involved. 

Could someone give me a good example of how to negotiate the wholesaled price with a buyer who has a repair fee estimate that does not fit the numbers?

It’s not an ideal fit but I could use a part of it or pay & do a conversion to something better for infinite banking.

What was done:Painted inside and outPainted roofReplaced flooring with new laminate, tile in baths and carpet in rooms.Replaced the tub, vanity and lighting in the master bath and tiled the shower and floors.Replaced the vanity and lighting in the guest bath and tiled the floorsPainted and repaired cabinets and installed granite counters and subway tile backsplash.Moved master closet door from the inside of the room to the bathroomRemoved original closet door in hallway and moved it to the master bedroom so that the master had a "his and hers" closet.One of the smaller rooms had a cubby hole next to the closet so you could fit a small desk and chair.

I was once tangentially involved in a case where a national bank did nothing with a foreclosed property for eight years or so.

All they usually care about is dealing with the hassle as quickly as possible to minimize their involvement.

So cities like Worcester or Lowell seem to fit the bill, but I'm very much open to new ideas and suggestions.Anyways, as I said before, I would love to meet/chat with any local investors, real estate agents, contractors, etc.

The pay is higher, but you do have to involve in day to day managing it & clean it.On Airbnb, Don’t rent to local people.
