You close deals worth six figures. But your expense tracking?
A shoebox. A folder of crumpled receipts. That one photo you swear you took of the staging invoice.
When April arrives, you're either guessing at deductions or paying your CPA to sort through chaos. Either way, you're losing money and sleep.
Real estate agents are self-employed—which means you're filing Schedule C. The IRS doesn't care that you were busy showing five properties that day. They want documentation.
The reality
Most agents miss significant deductions simply because they can't find receipts at tax time
The cost
Hours spent hunting through emails, cars, and desk drawers instead of closing deals
The risk
Real estate agents face elevated IRS scrutiny due to high deductions and variable income
Thirty seconds. That's it.
