Most people use the trust for anonymity.

, socialize, travel and 'find' their new selves without being tied down to a house or the anonymity of an apartment complex.

I believe that a land trust would be the easiest and cheapest way to maintain your anonymity.

How many anonymous people came into this thread just saying "it actually works" without any details about how it works. 

Louis, not sure why my anxiety decided to create some anonymity around the property address, but yes we're looking at the same one. 

I am considering setting up an anonymous shell corporation to handle the activities of said business and to hold real estate property ownership.  

They wouldn't even know who did it if it's a well check as it's anonymous.

The fifth pillar is owning everything anonymously.

Hi BP fam,Could someone outline for me what the pros and cons are of using an anonymous trust as a holding company for long-term buy & holds/rentals vs a WY LLC (with a nominee manager) ?  

Many high end rehabbers, doing the bigger dollar flips (which are not hard to find in northern California), cannot find enough cash from one investor and will often seek to fractionalized their 1st position loans.While you'll have to use a broker to originate a fractionalized loan in CA, I'd never loan money anonymously on their word and certainly not out of state.
