Franklin Marquette Legal Benefits of LLC at Small Scale

I own the majority (~54%).We only have 1 tenant now.We are doing arenovation of the existing duplex and building an ADU complex, Once finished,we will have around ~5,000 sq ft of living space across 2 2 bed 2 bath ~1,000sq ft ADUs, 1 ~2,000 sq ft 3 bed 3.5 bath unit in the existing duplex, and 1~1,000 sq ft 2 bed 1 bath unit in the existing duplex.This will be a 4unit (s 4 tenant groups) property butunits will likely be split so that is not equivalent to only 4 individuals.There will be a total of 9 bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms.Given the size ofthis property once completed and the amount of individuals potentially residingthere, AND given the multiple ownership dynamic, does it make sense to havethis in an LLC once it is completed or is that overkill given we only have theone property?
