If you talk the seller in to taking back a second, can you tell him that there is a tax advantage to holding the note for a year and then getting it cashed out. For example, if the seller sells to you at 80/20 and holds a note for 20K, Is he taxed as if he sold the house for 100K or 80K? Does he get taxed on the other 20K whenI pay him the ballon payment.
Incorporating in Nevada or Delaware - Posted by Anthony Henry

OK I have a quick question, does it matter where I incorporate or not. I was informed Delaware charges no corporate tax, is this true?. What about Nevada. Also what are the charges involved with getting the entity set up so I could do business in NY, flips L/O and an LLC that would handle an internet business. If Mr. Bronchick is out there is this something you can handle Bill??
If you incorporate in NV or DE and do business in NY, then you will have to pay NYS income tax and register as a foreign corp in NY. Thus, incorporating in NV or DE won’t help you. My step-by-step courses are all you need to do it yourself. The filing fees in NY are a bit steep, however.
Anthony- You may want to check out some of the incorporation services for FAQs and costs such as http://www.mycorporation.com/. Another good place for information for you would be your state government at The New York State Department of State
Division of Corporations, State Records,
and Uniform Commercial Code at http://www.dos.state.ny.us/corp/corpwww.html
I just got off the phone with the franchise tax board. The way the law reads it sounds like the first two years, but because it is prepaid you end up paying after the first year.
Although I don’t totaly understand the her reasoning, she made it clear that you need to dissolve the corp by the end of the first year to avoid the tax.
