One without the other, is a bad deal. 

I had a conversation with a Probate/Estate lawyer and he suggested the following but what he said doesn't quite add up to what I have read so I want to see if I am just not understanding or if I am getting bad gouge.Advice was to create WY LLC that owns all properties, that is then "owned" by a land trust for additional anonymity, that the beneficiary is a regular Trust that owns everything else in my name.

Just for the numbers - out of 125 skiptraced contacts, 71 have "Working" numbers (Albeit, some are landlines which are suboptimal to contact homeowners in foreclosure) - and 54 "No Skip Available/No Working Contact" numbers - So ~43% of the properties I skip trace come back with bad/no skips - and I feel like that number is relatively high, correct me if I am wrong.

The real estate market can be characterized by 4 phases. Here I will breakdown each stage in the attempts to help us all become more savy investors.

I needed to do a minor variance, which wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be and my architect did most of the heavy lifting.
