"For liability protection" isn't enough  - all LLCs provide separation from your personal assets. 

Sounds like they want to play the game, "Watch the Market Cycle" and buy another place if things cool down.Unless you have tons of assets to protect I wouldn't worry about renting to a lawyer.

You don't have to find the players yourself, leverage those who have already done it and are having success.

Where is the fiduciary protection for their client?      

This is structured with layers of removal because of Dodd Frank to keep the lender player from telling the appraiser to do anything.

You can easily transfer title to your LLC shortly after purchase.From what I've heard, land trusts don't provide any asset protection or tax benefits as an LLC would so DEFINITELY speak with an attorney before going down that road. 

You might need to just pass the info along to the tenant and their family/friends, but you can say that you've gone above and beyond in trying to help them out, as well as trying to protect your investment. 

Googling the entity name might yield more information about who the key players are, and you can use the tax assessor website to search by name and see what else they own, and if there is a lead to be had through one of their other holdings. 

I know this LLC does not provide legal protection nor anonymity.If anyone with similar experience has some good suggestions or even clarifying questions, please let me know!
