Every trustee of a land trust who accepts any instrument which transfers the beneficial interest under such trust after January 1, 1986, other than trust documents relating to land situated in counties with a population of 2,000,000 or less which secure debt or other obligation or when the actual consideration is less than $100, shall record the instrument or a facsimile thereof with the Recorder of Deeds or Registrar of Titles of the county in which the real estate that is the subject of the trust is located. Such document shall be recorded in the same manner as a deed for such real estate would be recorded or registered within 60 days after the trustee accepts the instrument which transfers such beneficial interest. Any document which is to be recorded pursuant to this Section may be altered so as to delete or omit the name of any or all parties named in the instrument and may be modified in any other reasonable manner to prevent the disclosure of the identity of such parties.
If the county board of a county adopts an ordinance imposing a tax upon the privilege of transferring a beneficial interest in a land trust, no transfer of a beneficial interest in any land trust shall be operative until such time as there is compliance with the county ordinance imposing the transfer tax.
