Attorneys tend to get protective, as they should, when negotiating for their daughters, nothing wrong with that, it's to be expected.  

In our case I want long term rentals to leave to my daughters.

I'll work on my 2017 goals over the next couple weeks, but it will probably be more on physical and mental improvement, as that is something I have neglected lately, and want to save cash for my own deal, as I'm probably done with being a passive investor for a while, but at least have Fannie Mae cred now. 

I want to leave my daughter with a legacy, but in the meantime pay for her education and retire at an age when I can still enjoy it. 

Blair, I am not a lawyer, but i believe you can either add her to the title or form a living trust with her as part of the trust, this way it goes to her and it does not go through probate. i would even make sure it is in your will that the house would go to her, or your daughter, if something happened to your wife.

Luckily for us, the house we'd just purchased could be rehabbed in right around 2 weeks so we agreed to house this young man and his wife and 2 year old daughter.

After 17 years as a dedicated, company first, workaholic I realize that EVERYONE is expendable and how much of my wife and daughter's lives I missed out on by getting caught on the "corporate hamster wheel".  

In my case I am the manager of my assets for my spouse and daughters.

This might be a good option for your daughter to line it up.Download BP’s newest book here some good due diligence in Chapter 10.

Turned out, the wife was the daughter of a Circuit Court Judge, all ended just fine as daddy wasn't fully informed, but it goes to show that most everyone is related to someone no matter how poor or unsophisticated they may appear, you just may never know who you are really dealing with. :)
