do you still have to file taxes if you don't do anything after creating the entity? Like if I don't sell anything or buy anything, like literally do nothing. I know this sounds odd and I'm asking from an extreme point of view just to understand the limits of my options.

Thank you for the feedback. To be more specific, I'm looking into land investing. So the reason I'm asking is because I don't want to start the cold calling and negotiations without having a business entity created. At the same time I'm assuming it will take me some time to get my processes in place and get that first lead, so I wanted to create the entity to get that ball rolling and move one step closer without knowing exactly when those leads will start churning. I'm not planning on sitting on my hands for 5 years creating the entity but I just wanted to ask my question on a bit of the extreme side so I know the limits of what I'm dealing with. So if there were any sort of recurring costs associated with just making a business entity and sitting on it for ages, I could budget the money needed or not needed to do that. Hopefully that helps add some context.
I know you could say "well just wait to create the entity until you're ready to get going" which is what I'm doing now, I just feel like for me personally, establishing that now would help me get going.
