Why Realtor Accounting Is Different
As a realtor, networking and marketing drive success. With higher commissions comes financial complexity — expense tracking, referral fees, HST obligations, and tax planning. These areas require specialized attention to ensure you do not overpay tax simply due to poor records.

Case Study – Real ROI from Proper Accounting
A successful realtor earning approximately $200,000 in gross commissions had no bookkeeper. When his taxes were filed, there were almost no expense deductions due to lack of records — resulting in nearly $80,000 in income tax and approximately $25,000 in HST.
Our in-house bookkeeping team reconstructed transactional data, captured expenses and referral fees, and re-filed the prior-year return — saving nearly $30,000.
We then implemented a Professional Real Estate Corporation (PREC), allowing retained earnings, lower marginal tax rates, and long-term planning — expected to save over $50,000 per year going forward
