Paying the least in taxes
I'm about to close on my first property, a 4-plex. I plan to buy more in a short while, and I thought one of the main benefits of a corporation was that you pay taxes LAST. So I thought if I bought another property with rental income from this first one later I wouldn't pay taxes on it since I didn't pay myself. Is this not the case? If not why?
