Hey BP,
This post is meant to help all others who come after me... essentially I am looking to create a short 2-3 sentence summary for any and all real estate investing strategy there is. This post is NOT meant to be an "end all be all", but simply a jumping off point for newcomers who are theory educated and NOT experienced educated (like me) to best determine what they would like to focus in. If you decide you like a particular strategy, it is then up to them to research all they can regarding that focus.
But starting out, I think a general database of all strategies out there and a short summary would be very beneficial to those first starting out... especially from experienced investors.

John Casper this is a great idea,
I will offer 4 boxes to look at....
1. Wholesaling Flipping - Birddogging; Get an Option "and or assigns".
2. Rehabs - Buy with cash or private lending, do the rehab, rent it out or sell it for cash/sell on terms.
3. Seller Financing - I define that as "Can the Seller help the Buyer Buy It? Can the Seller Help the REI and the Buyer Buy it?"
Seller Financing depends on the state - Sub2 with or without land trusts, Contract for Deed -Land Contract, Wrap AITD, Lease Options (Sandwiches or Assignments) the Due on Sale Clause is an issue with some of these.
4. Master Leases and Master Lease Options.
Traditional purchases with bankers cash include SFRs, Multi Family, Retail, Storage, small apartment buildings, etc.
There are others such as Discounted Note Flipping. The above tool box should be available to every RE Investor.
