To keep some of the liability/anonymity protection you could have the 5 members take title as tenants in common with 5 different single member LLCs which are all members of the managing LLC.

The company that did it is anonymous and did it through a third party.

I do recommend holding the property in an LLC - an LLC with anonymity if possible.

Since you're going to have a 2 layer entity structure anyway, you might as well go the anonymous route (see: AndersonAdv's 'ghost LLC' you-tube videos for a solid description).2) the QOZF then owns a QOZB. so make one.

It’s in an LLC, and I thought long and hard about staying anonymous during this process, but this is a small town, and the secret will get out the day we get the keys.

I will say that the way my LLC was filed with the state, it didn't really give me the level of anonymity that I thought it would since I am still named as the the manager of the LLC which is public record.   

Or if you want to keep the 1031 anonymous then simply make the contract "assignable". 

Investors often use LLCs either as a form of staying anonymous, or as a way to separate the investment from their personal possessions (in case they should get sued.... for liability reasons.)

We provide all of the necessary notifications at the closing so if you want to keep it anonymous you can.  

They are extremely rare and results from gross mismanagement of the member/owner that can be easily avoided.Now, if you have a personal liability attack against you (your kid is involved in a vehicle homicide for instance), an LLC in a charging order state will protect your real estate from being taken away from you.Last if you use anonymity protection with an LLC, you will avoid a lot of possible nightmare stories of harassment, threats, vandalism, libel to your home, work and social media by a disgruntled tenant.It may also protect you from frivolous lawsuits as an asset search by ambulance chaser lawyers will return nothing.To answer your questions:Yes if your LLC is disregarded for tax purpose, there will be no change to your tax return.
