It forced me to reach out to developers, to engineers dozens of local builders and most important like minded individuals.

I have a bank locally that will use DOT as collateral for loans.

I'm a local wholesaler, STR investor and generally curious real estate dude. 

Perhaps reach out to local agents who work with a lot of buyers in your market and see if any of them need a place to rent while they house shop (inventory is still low).

Their contribution depends on factors like local demand for ADUs, their design and size, and how they’re used (e.g., rental income potential).

Do you rely on inspections, local contractors, the agent, or property managers to get eyes on it?

As others said out of state can be more challenging based on location but local or out of state both can be done. 

Thank you@Brian Lubeck I believe you need to call the local DMV for where your trailers are located and go through the process for a replacement title.
