However, in the past I've had a number of clients purchase under a land trust with an LLC as the beneficiary.

In Feb of this year, we purchased a ST vacation rental condo on the beach in FL.We currently have a $1MM umbrella policy and started a relationship with an asset preservation attorney because we are going to start looking for another long term rental in the north metro atlanta area to try the BRRRR method.He is suggesting we change our JT Rev Tst to two indv Irrev tsts (with us as the beneficiaries) -> the trusts will be the owners of a holding company, multi member LLC.
