Zillow and similar apps don't seem to even offer land lease options.

With them buying the land, building it, and delivering it it's a lot more risk.

I am interested in pursuing the legal structure of creating a land trust that owns the investment property and the land trust is within a WY LLC.I have spoken to NCH, but I was wondering if any of you have recommendations of other companies that can help setup this structure for houses outside of WY.Thanks in advance**I am NOT looking for comments on why this is useless, unnecessary etc.

@Kerry Noble JrI thought trade lands were bought when the owners have no use for them.Therefore transferring their credit to the person who purchased them.

I'm proud to say that we landed in what I believe to be a better deal: three duplexes from a single seller in a West Michigan location that we are very happy with. 

Not a homeowners or land lord policy.

I would bet that the cost of the land is contributing to the $4M cost - although that does still seem high.. but I'm not super familiar with Truckee market. 

Are there concerns like location, zoning or land use, or is it simply about passing the inspection if it's a residential use?

Knowing a ball park figure can help me pick a price I will see if the homeowner will accept because there is alot of needed work)What kind of project planning should I do to make this an efficient project and reduce cost but keep quality?
