So, having the land trust is a good part of an overall strategy and can provide anonymity.

You're going to get very divided opinions here.Most people agree that forming an LLC is a good plan for (some) anonymity and protection, but the right insurance policy is even more important.

I heard you can put your properties in a land trust and then transfer them from you to your LLC if you wanted anonymity of the ownership your properties, that's just one aspect. 

If you have loans on the property, be sure to talk to your lender and verify this will not cause any problems with them.Here's a basic summary of LLCs:An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.

I’d like to know what’s the best way to structure my real estate business for anonymity, asset protection, and the best tax advantages?

I would much prefer to not do this, to remain anonymous, but I am starting to think that just isn't going to work. 

All states have the same inside protection, however the outside protection varies greatly.If some of properties are in states that do not offer good outside protection (ie charging order not being the sole remedy), you will then create a holding LLC in a state that has this great outside protection; This LLC will then own all the sub LLCs.Another aspect also is that some states offer anonymity adding another layer of protection.

@Scott Kays Another advantage of using land trusts - they give you a layer of anonymity (not liability protection) that works great with the LLC (which gives you the liability protection), and keeps your name out of the public records (supposedly, you still have to be careful, e.g. with the title mistakenly recording the trust documents too).As I mentioned, be careful when choosing to use a Quit Claim Deed - to maintain your title chain, you have to do it through a more expensive Warranty Deed (which might be another reason to use land trust, just check how they work together):A person receiving a purported real estate interest via a quitclaim deed may receive no legal right to the property whatsoever.

Early Shares said they are planning one, and I also had one tell me anonymously they have filed for this.

Now it seems  swamped with commercial-minded property owners seeking to cash in on their dull, anonymous real estate investments.
