If I fail to spend all my money before I die, she will inherit the high credit, corporate backed NNN properties I developed/repurposed over the last 15 years.

For example, one house the seller - a guy who inherited the house - stole all the appliances before closing, and when we showed up to do the final walk through they were gone.

When your heirs inherit your properties, they do so at the "stepped up basis" aka the value of the property when you died.

I’m in the process of closing on a duplex and will be inheriting a tenant on one side.

I plan on splitting this land into two 1.5 acre lots as there is enough road frontage, but I'm concerned that someone could show up and want to start drilling in the backyard.I think someone wanting to drill is unlikely for the following reasons:- the original owners are probably dead and the ownership is split between inheritance to multiple people- the lot is too small for them to mess with- there is only a single active well/pump within 30 miles from what I can see online.

Hello everyone, I inherited a piece of property in Berkeley CA from my grandmother a few years back.

To answer your question, You would need to get an attorney involved and just issue a mortgage and note along with having a will that your daughter would inherit this.

My kids may end up receiving an inheritance assuming they already value it...and if they don't then they'll get a token amount.

My understanding is that if there was no will that the wife should inherit everything in that situation.

SFHs aren't under currently under rent control in California and be careful if buying multi-family which are under rent control and know what tenants you're inheriting.
