It prompts for broker 1099s, commission statements, MLS/association dues, auto and mileage, marketing, staging, brokerage fees, rental ledgers, closing statements, and more—so we can identify deductions you may have missed in prior years.

  • We prepare your federal and state returns, applying real-estate-specific rules (QBI, depreciation vs. repairs, STR vs. long-term). Then you receive a recorded video walkthrough of your return that explains how your commission and rental income is taxed, what changed from last year, and what to improve going forward.

  • Once you approve, we e-file your returns and confirm acceptance. You’ll also receive guidance on quarterly estimates and longer-term strategy—entity choice, retirement options, and how to structure your holdings in the years ahead

FAQs

  • Big chains are built for volume and “one-size-fits-most” returns. A real-estate-focused firm knows how agents, brokers, investors, and landlords actually operate—commission splits, MLS and broker fees, mileage, marketing, rentals, depreciation, and QBI. The difference is depth: we ask better questions, catch deductions that are common in real estate, and help you plan ahead so you’re not surprised at tax time.

  • Absolutely! We’re based in Upper Marlboro and specialize in Prince George’s County real estate professionals, but you don’t have to live in PG County to work with us. If your business is centered here—clients, properties, commissions, or rentals—we can still be a great fit. We’ll confirm state filing needs during your kickoff call.

  • We start by mapping where your income is coming from and where you’re required to file. Many agents earn commissions across MD/DC/VA or beyond, and the key is reporting that income correctly while applying the right state rules. We’ll walk through your broker forms, commission statements, and any out-of-state activity, then file the appropriate returns based on your specific situation.

  • Think “clean and consistent.”

    Keep:

    • Your 1099-NEC(s) and year-end commission statements from each brokerage

    • A simple income/expense tracker (spreadsheet or app)

    • Receipts for MLS dues, association fees, desk fees, splits/referrals, lockboxes, signs, staging, and advertising

    • Mileage logs or auto expense records (with business purpose noted)

    • Home office details if you qualify (square footage, utilities, internet, etc.)
      If you track it monthly instead of scrambling in March, your return is faster—and usually better.

  • An LLC is often the first step because it can simplify liability and business structure, especially once your real estate income is consistent. An S-corp can make sense when your net profit is high enough that payroll + admin costs are outweighed by potential self-employment tax savings. There isn’t a single income number that fits everyone—your mix of commissions, rentals, and long-term goals matters. We cover this during a strategy call and only recommend it if the math and your situation support it.
