Get your taxes done using TurboTax
not quite correct. while the IRS does not impose income taxes on partnerships, some states do but not where there's losses
it generally makes no sense to have rental real estate taxed at the corporate level (c-corp filing form 1120). the losses go nowhere until the property is sold then the use of the losses is subject to whatever operating loss rules are in effect that year. The cforp might owe income taxes and if liquidated there could also be taxes at the individual level.
as to putting rental real estate in S-corp, that generally makes no sense either. even if yuo are not subject to the PAL limits, you have another obstacle to deducting losses and that's the at-risk provisions because in an S-Corp mortgages don't count towards shareholder basis only direct loans from the shareholder to the corp.
as you can see the tax laws are very complex, so if you are considering incorporating consult with a tax pro.
