Lending anonymously to online strangers is a quick way to get your lunch eaten, Zk.As noted, private lending is a business based on relationships.

Anonymity. 

For me it was more important to maintain anonymity in a small town.

I’m going the LLC route but also want to see my local options (if any) for anonymity and inside/outside protection, or if I’m gonna have to contact out of state sources like Wyoming anyway to start the umbrella.

There is something to be said for anonymously controlling assets.In this post I’m searching for as yet unseen legal requirements and I’m trying to ascertain what effect, if any, that borrowing the accrued rents might have on my tax liability.

Never mind.I know I am just a random anonymous voice on a chat forum, but I say this with 100% sincerity.   

The LLC will give you anonymity you will most likely be a pass-thru anyway for tax purposes.In the case of litigation any lawyer worth a dime will be able to break down the barrier of your LLC and you personally. 

How could you maintain some anonymity in this scenario?

Now if you know that drug dealing is going on for sure, make an anonymous phone call to the police a few times and eventually they will connect the dots, if he is a big fish, if not do what Mike suggested in a round about way.

However; what's the point of going through that trouble if it's easy to pierce the anonymity of that legal device in GA?
