Are there ways to build on the protection of the single-member LLC?

There are a number of ways to strengthen the arrangement. One way is to have the LLC that owns the home fully-owned by an international asset protection trust. Some advisors title the home directly to the international trust, but this can prove unwieldy since an international trustee firm must then administer the property. In all instances, a creditor can recover the home if it was fraudulently transferred to the LLC, an international trust or any other entity or party. That's why we also equity strip the home. There's no equity in the home to seize even if the property is recovered.
