As mentioned above, doing so could trigger the insurance policy to deny coverage of the accident.

(The house will not be under the LLC as to not trigger due on sale, as rarely as that may happen)

And yes I believe I would pull the trigger.

@Patty CapsonThere a few things to meet code compliance.  

For example, if I payed more for a property and it was recorded would that trigger the the county to reassess the property more likely? 

I plan to call the county's compliance/code office this week just to be safe and check on the zoning.

I'm just starting out and am focusing on education before pulling the trigger but I would be interested to hear from you what you would do with 30k as a foreign investor.

A great DST broker is going to be equal parts Real Estate investor (to evaluate the actual real estate from an investors point of view), Investment banker (Because many times the value of the property lies in the quality of the leases, revenue streams, and financing), and SEC compliance officer (obviously).  

I know that if you add / transfer the title on the property, it'll trigger a sale which will involve taxes.Hope this helps!

I've always read that Self storage is largely triggered by transitions, upsizing, downsizing, new job moving, etc.
