Real Estate agents, investors, property managers, developers and brokers should employ a CPA firm to oversee the tax service work for a multitude of reasons. The biggest reason is that with a firm, you have a team of licensed professionals who will deliver the best quality work that you can get to ensure that your books and taxes are both accurate and complete. Between the quarterly taxes, the payroll taxes (if you employ others), property taxes on the holdings, investments, possible tax credits, and other write-offs, there’s a lot that goes into maintaining the books and taxes for a real estate business.
