And if so, what do you think his techs were? What was he good at? Elemental properties he might have had?

I do believe he must have been pretty good. Maybe around Jmans level - maybe a little less - but yeah he would have been awesome.
We have seen him use water release, so that is an indication that he may have specialized in it.​

Well he was declared the leader. And the leaders of clans/villages in Naruto are usually suppose to be the strongest ones. I'm ASSUMING he had the power to take on Nagato, or atleast keep him in check.

He was powerful in his own way, a way that doesn't revolve around technique, jutsu, or KKG.

I would like to believe he was more than an elite jounin.

I'm going to assume (based on the fact that he LED the rogue group that was deemed a threat by hanzo) he was a low-kage fighter at the least. Considering he was comfortable with going on that one suicide mission alone, when he told konan that Nagato needed to stay alive and whatnot, I can only assume he had the utmost confidence in his own abilities.

Yeah, I think he was pretty powerful. Not enough evidence, but still.

About Mid-Kage Level. He was very skilled in Suiton, probably could destroy an entire village with a Water Jutsu.
...but Anyways, Nagato was always stronger.
Yahiko knew this so he tried to keep Nagao alive at all costs.
Nagato was the team's trump card.

Just like how the Leaf Village has a Hokage, but the strongest is Naruto.

I think he was powerful but not THAT powerful. I think he was more like the "Shikamaru" type, a type of strategist with very powerful convincing skills (Naruto style) and a great strategist. He was powerful, like higher-level Jonin but not Kage level.

When the Hokage was selected.. Tsunade was the strongest.

Nagato became "god" after Yahiko's death. Before that Yahiko was the one everyone feared. =D

So you can't say that at that point Nagato was stronger then Yahiko.

Nah, look at what Hanzou said:

Nagato was always the trump card, above Yahiko. He just did it from the shadows initially.
