New to investing, and I have a complicated life with finances, here's a quick back ground, I have a corporation, and so I don't make much money personally due to divorce complications and children, and my corporation has been utilizing the tax benefits, so I am sorta shooting myself in the foot twice I already know, but I have bigger plans to make my life better just need options.  

The landlord (which is a corporate entity with thousands of doors in several states) gets a tenant it likes for another 13 months.

One of the topics will be about "Buying Properties in a Corporation". 

I am a corporate/commercial lawyer in Toronto, with an interest in non-residential RE investing (although I do have a res rental unit).

You would then use this account for your credit from the above transaction.Make sure it's not included with your other expenses because you want your Profit and Loss to look like this:Income  xxxExpenses xxxNet Income xxx  <-----  This number is still really important to keep track ofNon Taxable Transactions xxx <----- This number will need to be added back to the Retained Earnings number as a manual adjustment on the tax return, if this is a multi member LLC, S-Corp or C-Corp. for each year going forward. 

Why use an LLC if the other side is going to be able to "pierce the corporate veil" with relative ease in my case?

I know it would be wise to do it under a business.My question is ,  Does it have to be an LLC or can it be a corporation? 

Pass-through entities are Schedule C businesses, partnerships, S-Corporations, and rental businesses (Schedule E) and LLC's who are taxes as the above entities.The income from each entity is treated separately, therefore, a loss from one entity cannot offset income from another entity.Capital gains are excluded from the the pass-through deduction calculation.

Tax, corporate, estate, some other?

I enrolled in college unsure about my future, under the influence that the corporate route was the only path available.
