Description

Sales and use taxation of construction and real property transactions is difficult to grasp and requires strict compliance with state tax registration and reporting requirements. Tax professionals and advisers must identify critical issues and carefully monitor the transactions and operations of residential and commercial property contractors, buyers, and sellers.

Whether you're a tax professional who works for a construction company or a business that enters into contracts with construction contractors, the tax treatment of these transactions can be subject to varying state-by-state tax rules. These sales and use tax rules can create issues for new construction, the renovation of an existing property, or the ongoing operation of a property.

Tax professionals, contractors, and related parties must recognize the expenditures involved with a project to minimize unintended sales tax assessments, penalties, and interest. Also, understanding how contract pricing dictates state sales tax rules and strategies in challenging audit assessments is crucial.

Listen as our panel examines the common sales tax issues for construction and real property transactions, labor, and materials. The panel will also provide insight into how contract pricing can dictate the application of sales taxes and offer best practices for maintaining state sales tax compliance.
