A Builder's Blue Print to Tax Preparation - 3 bldr credits

Construction accounting has its own set of rules — and understanding those differences is key to getting your taxes right

This class is designed to help home builders prepare for tax season with practical tools, smart strategies, and a better understanding of what needs to be in place before filing.

You’ll learn how to:

• Keep your books organized and tax-ready
• Choose the right business structure (S-Corp, C-Corp, or LLC)
• Properly issue 1099s to subcontractors
• Use your Balance Sheet and Income Statement correctly to avoid costly mistakes
• Identify opportunities to reduce your tax liability legally and effectively

By the end of this course, you’ll have a clearer picture of your financials — and the confidence to work with your tax professional to file accurately and make the most of your return.
