Someone will challenge it and I believe win in court.

Learned.RENTAL - Fast forward to March 2017, I was listening to a financial podcast (cannot recall which) and the hosts kept mentioning that the wealthiest people on the planet have a significant real estate portfolio.

For the latter I may not know the title of the person...financial advisors have wrinkled their brows while tilting their heads. 

The forms and tax law are constantly changing by hiring a CPA(not tax filer) to represent you he can go to court on your behalf.

I'm currently consuming all things REI - books, blogs, podcasts, etc. in hopes of gaining the knowledge to make an exciting and financially independent future for myself and my wife.

@Patrick PhilipThe beauty of much of this business for the investor is that while an investor sees a piece of land with a structure on it in terms of fungible value, a retail buyer sees a home and hearth, a place to raise their children, somewhere to grow old together with their loving spouse, a symbol of their financial competency, a mark of belonging to one class rather than another.

A land Trust shows up as a strand alone entity when a plaintiff's attorney runs a name search at the county court house. 

I've also really enjoyed a blog/podcast on personal finance and broader financial independence at  https://www.choosefi.com/https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2015/11/1...https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/04/1...

I can't imagine a more frustrating and dangerous scenario than to try to invest in an unfamiliar area that meets your financial proformas but where you don't know anybody, have access to on and off market opportunities, have relationships with trades people and property managers. 

To gain title by a claim of Adverse Possession a court would still need to find that the adverse possessor's claim to a property is legally opposed (hostile) to any potential claim by the owner of record.
