You Sell Real Estate. We Make Sure the Commission Doesn't Disappear at Tax Time.

Accounting and tax for realtors, teams, brokers, brokerages, PRECs and mortgage agents.

The problem

Commission arrives gross. Tax season is where it disappears.

Commission income is lumpy, expenses are personal-adjacent, and CRA looks closely at both. We build a clean structure, track what's actually deductible and plan the tax before it's owed.

What we cover

  • • PREC setup and accounting
  • • Commission and deal tracking
  • • HST on commission income
  • • Assistant and team payroll
  • • Advertising and marketing expenses
  • • Vehicle expense logs and claims
  • • Home office claims
  • • Corporate tax returns
  • • Salary vs dividend planning
  • • Tax instalments
  • • Monthly bookkeeping
  • • Rental and investment property reporting

Problems we solve

Where the money is usually leaking

You don't know whether a PREC makes sense yet

We model your income, personal spending needs and deferral opportunity, then tell you plainly whether incorporating helps this year — or next.

Everything runs through one account

We separate business and personal, build a deduction system you can actually maintain, and remove the year-end scramble.

Instalments and HST catch you off guard

We forecast HST and tax instalments so cash is set aside as deals close, not scraped together in April.

FAQ

Realtors & PRECs: your questions

How much will this cost?

Monthly accounting starts from $299/month and is priced on transaction volume, payroll, entities and complexity. Use the instant pricing calculator for an indicative range, then we confirm an exact fixed price after a short review.

Should I open a PREC?

It depends on how much income you leave in the business, your personal cash needs and your brokerage's requirements. We run the numbers before you pay legal fees.

What can realtors deduct?

Advertising, brokerage fees, vehicle use for business, home office, licensing, professional development, assistant wages and more — with the documentation CRA expects.

Do you handle HST on commissions?

Yes, including registration, filing frequency and reconciling brokerage statements to your filings.

Can you take over from my current accountant?

Yes. We handle the transition, request prior-year files and CRA access, review what was filed, and flag anything that needs to be corrected before we take over your filings.

Do you provide audits?

No. The Accounting Doc does not provide audit or assurance engagements. We focus on accounting, bookkeeping, tax, compliance, business registration, reporting and advisory services within the scope of our professional services.
