I believe this situation was handled in a way congruent with BiggerPockets values and ethos - information was discovered, we gave the user in question an opportunity to respond publicly to the allegations, other members of the community chimed in to make comments and ask questions of their own, I made the decision to close the post because I believe many of the top viewpoints were discussed and I didn't want it to turn into shameless trolling with no additional value, that whole thread remains up for community members to view into the future for transparency and anyone who reads it can form their own opinions with the information presented.

NMLS Consumer Access is a fully searchable website that allows the public to view information concerning state-licensed companies, branches, and individuals licensed and registered through NMLS.

I think a lot of people like using the platform since even the primitive sites offer more space and privacy than a 'typical' public campground where you can hear the next guy snoring.   

Advertising an illegal, non-conforming basement for rent, whether publicly or privately, out right violates local laws. 

I didn't try too hard, but again, if somebody has had their hand in hundreds of houses you'd think they WANT a real and recorded public presence. 

To keep my privacy, and my name and address off the public records, I used a registered agent for the LLC.

You should be able to obtain them from the property owner, builder, or public records if they already exist.

The MLS (pulled from public records) shows it as a 3/1. 

In many states, an LLC can keep your name off public records, which is great if you prefer to keep your ownership private or avoid being directly associated with the property.Having an LLC also makes you look more professional.

Bifurcating the asset and operation, putting the wealth behind an "iron curtain" and arranging the public facing side of things in a manner where it is a conveyor belt of throw-away entities with little to no value stored themself, IS a viable approach.
