LLCs not only provide inside protection, but also help in maintaining anonymity which is also important.

An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.

If you're seeking an attorney to protect your business, I suggest asking about anonymity, asset protection, and pitfalls.

I mainly tell tenants that I'm the property manager to keep anonymity.

Any suggestions or guidance would be very appreciated.An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.

Good idea on calling the inspector's office anonymously to get a sense for where the line is. 

The primary issue that I see is that you will need an anonymous Trustee for the Land Trust.

I did this to give some anonymity and lawsuit protection (I know not 100%, but a lot more than a traditional LLC in the state I reside).

You pay to set them up, pay extra to file your tax return, etc...and most people probably don't maintain properly.  90% of the people don't set them up correctly to maintain anonymity so nothing gained there either.   

One thing to keep in mind is that in certain situations this can hinder your title insurance and if anything ever came back later on about the title you may not be protected.Last, there have also been some good points made about the anonymity aspect that can be provided with a business structure setup.
