What Specific Accounting and Bookkeeping Solutions do Real Estate Agents Require?
Almost every real estate agent is pressed for time. The more time they spend on their bookkeeping and accounting, the less time they have to book for showings and putting people in their homes. Besides that, real estate agents have specific accounting and tax considerations that should be handled by an expert with real estate industry experience. Below are some of these specifications :
- Mileage vs. actual vehicle expenses: Be certain that you are deducting your vehicle expenses in the most tax-efficient way possible.
- Deductible expenses for real estate agents: Since being a realtor is a service-based business, it can be difficult to determine what expenses are deductible.
- Income recognition: Determining whether you should recognize your income when it is paid to you or when it is earned/accrued.
The advantage of having your bookkeeping in order is that it allows for tax planning throughout the year. Tax planning involves taking your bookkeeping information and running tax projections to estimate your total tax liability for the year. Once you’ve done that, you can then make decisions that may reduce your estimated tax liability before the end of the year. These decisions may involve purchasing new equipment, paying bonus checks to employees and owners, or simply preparing for the estimated payment due. At Proficient Accounting & Tax Services, you’ll receive tax liability estimates and planning tips throughout each tax year, helping you stay ahead of the game.
