That sounds alot like my plan though didnt consider using the basement for myself as privacy would almost be lile a duplex.

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

If living, elders can be difficult to locate if in a senior facility due to health privacy laws.If deceased, owner be identified in Social Security Death Index, however this is nit always reliable.

Land Trusts can offer certain privacy and asset protection benefits, as the Trustee's name rather than the beneficiary's name appears on the property title.In summary, LLCs offer liability protection and flexible management structures, while Land Trusts offer privacy and asset protection benefits.

Vacation renters tend to want the entire property for privacy and will avoid multi-family --- especially if it means sharing a major amenity like a pool.  

For example I would give a single-family a large rent premium because people prefer having a yard and the greater privacy afforded in a SF.

Families are looking for the privacy, control over their environment, and social distancing they can find in an STR.With work and school schedules changing due to remote work and learning, families may start traveling in the previously "slower" months.

In the property records, there is only a deed of trust for the first and second mortgage.I'm wondering if we can both sign a quitclaim deed over to a land trust directly, or if we can sign one back to me and then I can sign a land trust assigning an LLC established in Wyoming for privacy purposes as the trustee (and perhaps another LLC as the beneficiary of the trust).

If I understood you questions correctly, setting up LLCs is probably a good solution as it protects your privacy, protects you from liabilities, organizes your business transactions effectively, and can pave the way for future scaling.Base on my limited knowledge, LLCs can be set up online easily in some States. 

I've heard of NM being advantageous from a privacy perspective, but not exactly sure what makes it so different from other states (you can try Googling "JJ Luna New Mexico" if interested).For instance, we formed our LLC in California since that's where our rentals are.
