On $400k net profit, shifting $250k to distributions can save you around $35k in payroll taxes alone.Reimbursing home-office, vehicle, phone and internet, per-diem travel, and health-related fringe benefits, where eligible often adds $15k in annual tax efficiency.Solo 401(k) from S-Corp wages can shelter $23k to $69k+ depending on age or profit, creating additional deferral/savings.Rule of thumb:If net flip profit greater than 150k/yr, the admin hassle may outweigh savings, you will need to optimize insurance and stay in your name or simple LLC for now.If net flip profit less than $200 to 250k/yr or you’re scaling partners/crew, an S-Corp usually pencils, savings can exceed compliance costs by 5–10x.This post does not create a CPA-client relationship.
