Shareholder of an S corporation flips houses on the side. Their main source of income is from appraisals in their S corp. They purchase houses to flip in their personal name because they are not able to purchase the properties in their S corporations name. Is there a way they can move these properties into the S corp, in order to avoid paying self employment taxes on the profits of the flipped houses?

"because they are not able to purchase the properties in their S corporations name"
Sounds like you answered your own question with that comment, but why can't they purchase the properties under the corporate name?

Even if they could, they'd have to take wages from the S Corp - which are subject to social security and Medicare taxes.
