Since I was listing myself on the forms, it's not like I had much privacy anyway (hint: if you want privacy, you'll want a resident agent's name on the forms, not yours).Fast forward 10 years and I only recently created two LLCs: one for my education business and one for my real estate holdings going forward.

I hope to do this on a homestead property of at least 3 acres in a peri- urban area, ensuring a bit more privacy. 

This project is essentially a complete gut that will include addition of roughly 700 SQF, new roof, siding, landscaping, privacy fence, hardwood flooring installation, interior re-design into an open concept floor plan, upgraded kitchen with granite counters, new cabinets, stainless steel appliances, etc.

We've had to eat most of our meals out as we don't have a functioning kitchen and the constant presence of the construction crew has made it difficult to have any type of privacy, let alone some peace and quiet for my 9 month old baby.

Short term planning to install privacy fence for the side yard, finish part of the basement.

At this point I am in a jam, I respect people's privacy but I have an ongoing business problem here.

Big closets are also hard to find.Fencing in a B or C neighborhood is a plus for privacy and safety but just the back yard is usually enough.If you allow pets, it can be a wise, money generating move or a very costly mistake. 

You will have a bit more privacy if you use an entity or, better yet, a numbered account.Of course you can be sued as a lender. 

What if I hire someone to mow my yard or wash my truck or replace 3 pickets on my privacy fence? 

There are many ways to structure but they have to be set up to fit your business model specifically.We put all of our hold properties into land trusts for many reasons - privacy, tax structure, flow through to heirs.
