When an S Corp purchases a residential rental property are the closing costs deductible as an expense on form 8825?

Has anyone discussed with you the ramifications of holding rental property in an S Corp entity?

No. That has not been brought up. I am following the prior year taxes and how the client purchased the home. What are the pitfalls?

S Corps require Payroll for the employees in this business for the work they perform. That's the first problem I like to point out.
@sjrcpaon a similar topic, provided this info:
"Never put real estate in a corporation.
Also most RE deals are structured so that someone gets more than their ownership % of cash distributions, income, etc. Can't do that in an S Corp."
