If you’re not going to make the smart move of selling tax free, and make the questionable move of being a landlord in Ca just because you already own the home…A) No LLC, it won’t help with taxes, liability, or anonymity but it will increase the cost of insurance, taxes, and any financing  (and maybe the bank calls the current mortgage  due.)B) Get an umbrella policy if you are worth more than $1M, maybe $500k  C) Don’t even THiNK about doing this yourself.

Im curious why this isn't a more popular method  (especially for people who live in a high LLC filing fee state like me).My attorney swears by them for their anonymity, asset protection (when each series/child trust is ran like an individual entity), and affordability.

If I make myself the trustee than I am losing the benefit of anonymity or am i?

Church, mom, dad, anonymous doner, it doesn't matter.

Doing real estate; Not an anonymous person on the internet that you can appoint titles or assumptions.

For probably 90% of the people it does not provide anonymity, it doesn't protect you from liability, and it doesn't save you any taxes. 

I'm curious about why KKOS lawyers were unable to maintain anonymity.

I want to set a structure that provides anonymity, asset protection, and tax advantages.

Less complicated, cheaper, easier.An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.
