Is the intention to accelerate property repayment?

Many of these things are there with good intentions to protect people.

The intent would be to build a small rustic cabin, 400-500 sq ft., for weekend retreats while also rent it out part time, assuming local laws permit.

Your Attorney would love to sell you stuff you don't really need.If you don't operated this 100% correctly someone intent on Sueing you will just pierce the corporate veil anyway.You are much better off taking care of your properties so no one wants to sue you, having correct STR insurance and you can always add an umbrella policy for a 3rd layer of protection.

Your a troll because you intentionally selectively quoted me in an attempt to provide the narrative you wanted and because in spite of being told numerous times that leverage is a big reason RE can produce great returns you choose to repeatedly use your in leveraged example.

Loans are almost always used as proof of correct "investment intent" under an audit scenario. 

Try looking into zillow/Redfin and see what your potential rents you can get near the neighborhood by filtering the bedrooms/bathrooms of the intentional property that you are planning to buy.

With out a specific property to assess it is difficult to run numbers, but if my first sentence is on track I get the intent.

We are planning to transfer it to a land trust, yes.When you transfer a contract that has a due on sale clause, to a Land Trust, to hide the transfer, (that is the reason for the Land Trust, now isn't it) just be aware that is interpreted by the court as the intent to deceive.

You will probably still be required to provide maintenance at the end of the day most likely but it should relieve some of the burden because they understand your intentions going into the deal.
