Tax season just closed, and if you wrote a big check to the IRS, you need to hear this. Overpaying taxes is one of the most widespread profit leaks I see across every type of home service business, from plumbing and roofing to HVAC and electrical. Most owners never realize it's happening because their accountant is doing exactly what they were trained to do, which is record history and file returns, not look ahead for savings. I recently sat down with a new client who had been paying a million dollars a year in income taxes for three years, and his prior accountant had never once said, "Do you realize you have options?" We found just one strategy together that will save him $400,000 on this year's return alone. That's what happens when you stop letting Sneaky Leaky hide in your tax return.
