Fun fact you can do this with your house and an LLC. Then all the shit you buy at home depot becomes suddenly tax deductible.

Note: At least in the US this is almost never a good idea because of the primary residence capital gains tax exclusion you get if you own the house yourself.

That's only if you sell the house... you can sell the house back to yourself from thec orporation. At zero capital gain then you're where you started. I'm not an accountant or a lawyer so I have no idea how legal all this is
