Here is one, remove corporate anonymity.

Land trusts provide excellent anonymity and then your LLC should provide the protection you want.

Defeats any chance at anonymity!

(enter sarcasm), but now my local LLC owned by my WY LLC owned by a DE corporation is no longer anonymous and my tenants are going to sue me for everything I own... :)

Hi all,I’m trying to create some anonymity between me and the tenants.

California requires an $800 for LLC's that are doing business in California.California law suggests that managing members of an LLC that are a resident of California are considered to be doing business in California.Normally people will suggest opening up the LLC in the state where you are doing business(Normally the state where the property is located at).Others will suggest opening the LLC in a different state such as Wyoming, Nevada or Delaware for charging order protection, business friendly case law, anonymity, etc

Whether its your tenants, creditors, attorneys, the boogeyman, crazy ex etc. you're afraid of.... none of the wonky asset protection strategies aid in preventing the liability or claim from arising and add no additional protections, anonymity or preparedness.

Having said that, as an LP myself in 30+ deals, and collaborating with many other LP's the main reason myself and others choose to invest in syndication via LLC is the anonymity that could come along with it from outside litigation. 

Are you an heir to the rockefeller fortune that you want anonymity on? 

Just don't buy into the lie that it's necessary, that it's a 100% guarantee of protection, or that it needs to be complicated.Here's some generic advice.An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.
