What is the best way to structure an anonymous LLC?
My wife and I want to form an anonymous real estate holding LLC in AZ (Arizona does not provide anonymity, but it offers great charging order protection). I was told in order to achieve anonymity that I have two options:
1) To create a living trust owned by my wife and I, and then make the trust be the sole member of the holding LLC (by doing this, our names will not be on the articles of organization).
2) To form another LLC in another state that offers anonymity such as Wyoming, Nevada, or New Mexico, and make this LLC be the sole member of my AZ holding LLC.
Which option would you better recommend in order to get the maximum asset and charging order protection?
Thanks for your help!
