Depends. If you are planning to build next Google 2.0 go for the 3rd option
If you are going for a PBN go for 2nd option
And if you are going to an average site willing to rank slightly faster than starting from scratch, and the name is relatively important, go for 1st option.
I've been using all 3 options situationally. There isn't a better one for a general scenario.

None of those.
1. Domain age does not matter, if the domain power is low, then you might as well start with a new site.
2. Niche relevancy is important for money sites, power as well. If the name isn't too brandable, well, it's not that much of a problem, but you want at least some level of brandability.
3. Nah, better to get a head start.

For expired domain relevancy, Backlink profile and good history is more important. These are more effective than age(maybe it can give a bit of value but not much). I would go for 2, if the site already have good stats, the put some effort to increase brand awareness.

I like starting fresh but people like expired domains too if you have the budget try all there
