Question

Im going to put Real Estate in its name

Answer 1

On some of the offshore islands you can form a corp. for as little as $100 USD.As long as it takes for you to request the documentation, send funds and get it faxed back.

Answer 2

You can register with the Secretary of State and become a "corporation" or "LLC" the same day.  The filing fee can be $50.00 to $100.00.  Then you have the follow up docs to do, but the first step is over quickly.

Answer 3

there are filing fees that vary by state, plus lawyer fees - figure around $600 - some online companies can get you going in a couple of days - one is called the Corporation Company I think - google "forming a corporation"

Answer 4

It really depends upon the state.  I would check with your state Secretary of State department for the filing fees.  You do not have to register your corporation in the state you live in.  Many corporations are registered in the State of Delaware.  

There are some companies that will help you in expediting your corporation registration.  You can type in "corporation" under any search engine and several companies pop up.  They will usually charge you several hundred dollars, but that takes care of registration fees and their fees as well.
