Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York

flipping property

when getting into wholesaling properties or acquiring properties to flip to investors, what is the best business structure to engage in? Should I do so as a sole proprietor, s-corp, c-corp or llc? And are there any special laws or regulations that I should be aware of that could affect me adversely?
