I just finished reading "Land Trusts for Privacy & Profit" by Mark Warda. It seems to cover all the issues with Land Trusts. Now I'm looking for detailed "how-tos" for the states where I am invested and where I'd like to invest in next: California, Georgia, and the State of Washington.

I know my portfolio is a bit scattered and I am in the process of re-adjusting. I intend on using land trusts to facilitate both acquiring and selling.

Can anyone suggest land trust information resources for the states I'm in?

@WillBarnard, On Aug 15, Dyches Boddiford spoke at our local REI club and he specifically said that a Land Trust does not file a tax return, it is a "flow through" entity, and that an EIN or SSN is not required. Can you clarify for me, please?

Thanks,

Alan

Hi Jean,

In wholesaling, do you create your over Land Trust Agreements or do you have someone prepare them for you?

Thanks for the reply, Ned. Most everybody talks about how simple a land trust is and that is probably true but most everybody is weak on a detailed description on how to actually create one and use it in conjunction with other entities such as LLCs. Does Lou Brown address Land Trusts in California?

Thanks

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a good course of education on the subject of Land Trusts and related matters? I also would like to know which courses that should be avoided.

I welcome all replies and am interested in hearing from those who have taken the courses themselves.

Thanks,

Alan
