@Vi Huang contractors are only motivated by one thing, "Money."  Hopefully you have not paid him the entire contract.  If you are having that many issues with him, get a new contractor.

I started over 40 years ago. I would suggest seeking some additional advise, but I always tell everyone to start out correctly from the beginning. When I purchase homes (in California) is use a land trust for privacy reasons and the beneficiary is my LLC for liability reasons.

Get the right info for your situation.

@Aaron Wilkins I am not an attorney or CPA, but you asked.

Keep stuff in my name so I have more lending options and better rates, including credit unions. All banks require this even if you have an LLC. Then you place it back into your LLC. There is way too much exposure for you to keep assets in your personal name.

Have iron clad insurance for myself as a landlord. The goal of any insurance company is to minimize there losses. Even having a iron clad insurance policy, which you should have anyway, is not a guarantee that the insurance company will make you whole. If the property is in an LLC then that is all you can lose. They can't come after you personally.

Move my top assets like my home and paid off cars out of my name into a trust to further protect me.  Trust are privacy instruments and not asset protection.

Anyone see a glaring hole in this plan? Something I missed?  Speak with someone who knows what they are doing to properly protect your assets.  You will sleep better at night.

The connections that perfectly complement you are out there. If you have not found them yet, you aren't looking hard enough. No successful investor will tell you that it is easy, but they will tell you that most could achieve success with hard work and perseverance. Don't give up!
