Good idea on the Trust as that will avoid probate (required even if there is a will) and your father can control who gets what via the Trust.Your challenge is what happens if you do all the work to turn the portfolio around and then your father sells it, gives you less than you think you deserve or leaves it to someone else?

I had no trouble getting it under control and I got a nice deal in the process. 

I would be skeptical of one who offers all because they would then control how your income and expenses are being coded and they could be doing something nefarious. 

For example, we have a private network just for our team's devices that's hidden from guest. 

Also there is an Alcon can factory, a Sunny Delight beverage factory, Emerson controls factory, some kind of prison near Bonham, another near Gainesville. 

This ensures any future equity gains benefit only you and allows you to control the property fully.Buying a Third Home: Using proceeds from the rental home's sale to buy another house hack and renting out your current home entirely could generate substantial rental income.

I have also heard concerns about removal and tampering with these devices. - Water: I'm currently including water in rent for both of my buildings, because I've luckily not had to meter my water use.

That way they can better control deal flow, and also can convert more of those leads to a profit.  

I I like to be in control  

in particular make sure you know the value that will be added by the ADU and that in your case both units may be rent controlled (no 15 year exemption in some jurisdictions for a garage conversion were garage is over 15 years old.
