IRS Tax Problems Are Common in Real Estate. Attorney-Led Solutions Are Not.

Best Tax Attorney for Real Estate Professionals

Real estate is one of the most lucrative industries in the country and one of the most tax complex. Whether you are closing deals as an agent, brokering loans, flipping properties, or wholesaling contracts, the IRS treats your income differently than a salaried employee and the obligations that come with it can pile up faster than most professionals expect. At Tax Law Advocates, David Cho and his team provide attorney-led IRS resolution specifically built around the realities of the real estate industry.

Why Real Estate Professionals Face Unique IRS Challenges

The Tax Reality Facing Real Estate Professionals

Most real estate professionals are self-employed or operate as independent contractors, which means no employer is withholding federal taxes on their behalf. Every dollar earned is subject to both income tax and self-employment tax. When business is good and money is flowing it is easy to spend first and worry about taxes later. The problem is the IRS does not wait. Missed quarterly payments trigger penalties that compound quickly, and before long the notices start arriving and collection actions begin.

The Pain Points That Bring Real Estate Professionals to Us

Common IRS Tax Problems Real Estate Professionals Face

  • Unpaid self-employment taxes. You are responsible for both the employee and employer share of Social Security and Medicare taxes and missing these payments adds up fast.
  • Missed quarterly estimated payments. When a big commission comes in late or a deal falls through, estimated payments get skipped and penalties follow.
  • IRS notices and collection letters. CP2000 notices, Intent to Levy letters, and Final Notices are common for real estate professionals who have fallen behind.
  • Tax liens on property. The IRS can file a federal tax lien against your real estate holdings making it nearly impossible to close deals or secure financing.
  • Commission garnishment. The IRS can garnish your commissions directly from your broker or escrow leaving you unable to meet basic financial obligations.
  • Unfiled tax returns. The demands of a busy real estate business can lead to years of unfiled returns that create compounding IRS problems.
