How to get the most of real estate agent tax deductions for mileage

Wednesday, June 8th, 2011

tax Help thumb How to get the most of real estate agent tax deductions for mileageIn the world of real estate, travel is paramount. According to Carole Liszak, an Indianapolis realtor of over 25 years service, “If you’re not on the road, you’re not making money.” Unfortunately, time spent on the road can become costly for the realtor that fails to successfully claim real estate agent tax deductions.

The government currently offers real estate agents a tax deduction at a rate of $0.51 for every business-related mile traveled. Unfortunately, many realtors fail to successfully maximize these real estate agent tax deductions due to gaping holes and inaccuracies in their records. This is because balancing clients and travel while keeping accurate logs of business mileage is a near impossibility.

A Better Way

In 2002, CarCheckup introduced a new device capable of providing drivers with detailed trip information including driving style, miles traveled, and codes for vehicle engine lights. Almost 10 years later, realtors just like Carole Liszak are using CarCheckup to maximize their mileage-related real estate agent tax deductions.

“Before CarCheckup I had to keep all my receipts and hand-write my business mile logs, which is a tedious task that’s easy to neglect,” Liszak offered. “CarCheckup makes mileage tracking as simple as plugging the device in once a week…It couldn’t be simpler!”

7 steps to maximizing realtor tax deductions for mileage

Saturday, May 28th, 2011

TaxDeductions thumb 7 steps to maximizing realtor tax deductions for mileageOne of the most time consuming parts of a realtor’s day is the travel. For every mile a realtor travels on behalf clients, the expenses quickly add up. Fortunately, the government offers realtor’s tax deductions for mileage to help offset what would be an otherwise enormous expense.

Claiming realtor tax deductions, however, is another matter entirely. Realtors must keep logs detailing the purpose of every business trip and every mile traveled. Thus, realtors end up carting around heavy paper logs in hopes of finding a spare moment to jot down the minutiae of the travel day. With so much riding on that information, there has to be a better way.

Step Out of the Dark Ages

This is the age of information. With technology evolving faster every day, it doesn’t make sense to hold on to an outdated system of record keeping. To maximize realtor tax deductions for mileage, realtors must embrace the future.

That’s where CarCheckup comes in.

Sick of paperwork for business mileage reporting, see one realtor’s solution

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

mileagetracking thumb Sick of paperwork for business mileage reporting, see one realtors solution

For the average real estate agent, travel is a way of life. Just ask Carole Liszak, an Indianapolis realtor of more than 25 years. “I’ve been in the real estate business for a long time, and if you’re not on the road, you’re not making money,” Liszak admitted.

While travel is a necessary evil for realtors hoping find the perfect home for his or her client, it brings with it some rather hefty expenses. Luckily for the real estate industry, the IRS provides 51 cents on the mile for approved business travel deductions.

Business Travel Deductions

Of course, to maximize the potential of business travel deductions, realtors must keep accurate records of business-related mileage. This traditionally means dragging around heavy paper logs and trying to fill in travel information whenever the opportunity presents itself. Unfortunately, this often leads to realtors and agents neglecting other important duties for fear of missing out on business travel deductions. No matter how an agent chooses to deal with the task, keeping track of business travel deductions tends to consume time the agent really doesn’t have.

Carole Liszak was all too familiar with this situation. “I had to keep all my receipts and hand-write my business mileage logs, which is a tedious task that’s easy to neglect.” Sick of the paperwork, Carole Liszak sought a solution. That’s when she discovered CarCheckup.

As CarCheckup records everything a realtor could need in terms of business travel deductions, agents no longer have to worry about finding the time to log mileage, which means realtors like Carole Liszak can once again focus on the needs of their clients. “CarCheckup makes mileage tracking as simple as plugging the device in once a week and letting it stay in the diagnostic port. It couldn’t be simpler!”

Everything a Realtor Needs for Business Travel Deductions

Recording everything from the exact date and time of the trip to the total miles traveled, CarCheckup provides everything a realtor needs for business travel deductions. To access the information, realtors can use CarCheckup’s built-in USB arm to connect to an Internet-ready personal computer.

3.  Agents have the option of printing only that information which is relevant to claiming business travel deductions.

In addition to maximizing business travel deductions, CarCheckup “pays for itself,” according to Carole Liszak, “and improves the bottom line of your business.”

Maximizing Tax Deductions for Realtors Business Mileage

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

forsalesign thumb Maximizing Tax Deductions for Realtors Business MileageTravel is a huge yet often overlooked aspect of the real estate business.

Luckily for the real estate agent tax deductions on business mileage help to offset what can be a tremendous expense.

Ironically, for the average real estate agent tax deductions can be a double-edged sword. While these real estate agent tax deductions are appreciated, the amount of time and effort involved in accurately logging mileage can be overwhelming.

view of their detailed travel information.

Real Estate Agent Tax Deductions

Improved Bottom Line

4 Best Car Tips to Save Money On Gas

Friday, May 6th, 2011

Gas prices getting you down?  CarCheckup has gathered the five best bets that you can use today to lower your fuel consumption.

fillingGas thumb 4 Best Car Tips to Save Money On Gas

1.  55 mph instead of 65 mph saves you 15% on fuel 

Each make/model/year of car has it’s own fuel efficiency numbers. A full size SUV will have lower fuel economy than a new small sedan. The math still holds though:  dropping 15% of your fuel economy can make a big difference to your weekly fuel cost. 

Assuming a cost per gallon of $4.00 per gallon, that extra 10mph is costing you $0.60 per gallon.  If your gas tank is a 15 gallon tank then you’re spending an extra $9 per fill up on average. 

Time is money and there just aren’t enough hours in a day, but let’s use an example to see what the actual impact of that extra speed buys you. 

Let’s assume your car gets 30 miles per gallon on the highway at the posted speed limit of 55.  You need to make the trip from Indianapolis to Chicago,about 165 miles one way, for a client meeting.

Average SpeedDrive TimeFuel EconomyCost of Fuel ($4/gal)Time Savings compared to 55 MPHExtra Fuel Cost
55180 minutes30 mpg$22.00––
65150 minutes25.5 mpg$26.4030 minutes$4.40
75132 minutes20 mpg$33.0048 minutes$11.00

Save even more money by tracking your business mileage!  Round trip, at the 2011 IRS business mileage deduction rate of .51/mile, will give you a cool $168.30 mileage deduction come tax time.  (Need a simple business mileage tracking solution? See if CarCheckup.com is right for you)

Fun Fact:  The average cost for a speeding ticket is $150 in the US. If you get caught speeding that will increase your trip cost as well!

2.  Rapid Acceleration/breaking can drop mileage by up to 33%

Aggressive driving (hard acceleration, hard breaking, and excess speed) can drop your mileage my up to 33%! That’s like choosing to spend an extra $1.49 per gallon by hammering the gas after each stoplight turns green and stopping aggressively slamming the breaks when you approach a stoplight.  Simply adjusting driver performance by accelerating slowly and coasting towards a light can make a huge impact on your fuel economy.   

3.  Clean out your trunk!  Every extra 100 pounds reduces your fuel economy by 2%

You don’t have 100 pounds of junk in your trunk, right? 

Do you put bags of sand or salt in your trunk to help with winter traction?  Are you still lugging it around with you now?  That could be well over 100 pounds by itself!

Now that we’ve taken care of that: What else do you have in there that you really don’t need to carry?

4.  At Idle you get ZERO miles per gallon

The average passenger sedan burns car at idle burns approximately one gallon of gas per hour of idling.

It may not seem like a lot, but it really adds up!.  Let’s take a look:

Daily Idle TimeGallons Per DayCost Per Day (@$4.50/GalGallons Per MonthCost Per Month (@$4.50/GalGallons Per YearCost Per Year(@$4.50/Gal
15 min.25$15$2360$270
30 min.5$210$45120$540
45 min.75$315$68180$810
60 min1$520$90240$1,080
120 min2$940$180360$2,160

As you can see, even small changes in driver behavior can have a huge impact on fuel spend over the course of a year.  One of the best ways to increase fuel economy is to reduce idle time.

5.  If you’re check engine light is on, find out why and fix it!

Did you know that a bad O2 sensor can reduce your fuel economy by up to 40%?  Or that a  failed gas cap seal can cost you 5% of your fuel economy?  The EPA originally mandated the use of OBDII technology to aid in monitoring emissions related systems.  If you’re check engine light is on there is a solid chance that your gas mileage is being impacted. These two check engine light codes are among the most popular seen in the CarCheckup system.

CarCheckup.com can help you find these issues as well make tracking driver performance and business mileage for you or your fleet painless.

 ButtonFreeBizTips 2011 IRS Standard Mileage Deduction

 

The IRS released their updated mileage rates for 2011.

Standard mileage rates are used to determine how much of a deduction you get for miles driven for business, charity, moving, or medical reasons.  These miles can really add up for the average business person, and shouldn’t be neglected for the average Joe either.  No one wants to pay Uncle Sam more than they need to!

Each year the IRS computes a value for standard mileage based on the costs they expect a driver to incur during the average mile driven.

These new rates take effect on January 1, 2011 for all cars, light trucks, and vans.

How much money are you loosing not keeping track of your business mileage?

Tuesday, October 5th, 2010

taxHelp thumb How much money are you loosing not keeping track of your business mileage?

With all the work involved between leading a professional life and leading a balanced life, how many times have we forgotten seemingly simple things… such as tracking our business mileage? With everything that goes on in life, it’s easy to brush off logging your mileage – after all, you’re just trying to get from point A to point B without spilling your morning cup of coffee! But when you forget to track your business mileage, it can really put a huge drain your wallet.

Perhaps you do track your business miles, but aren’t aware of certain places that you could be counting towards your expenses. Or maybe you almost always track your mileage, except when you forget to make a note of your trip in your log. Or worse yet, you might not be logging any of your business miles at all!

According to statistics posted on epa.gov, the average mileage per year for normal passenger cars is 12,000 miles. The mileage for people who use their cars for business can be considered higher than that, perhaps closer to

After much research (and many cups of coffee), we’ve crunched the numbers to show you how much money you could be losing if you’re not keeping track of your business mileage. Here are three different scenarios that describe most business people and their mileage tracking habits. What category fits you? How much money could you be saving?

A) You Generally Track Your Business Mileage, you just might not know all the places you can track mileage

People who do this get the “Good Effort” award. Why only “Good Effort?” Even people who are fairly religious about tracking their business mileage often overlook trips that they could count as business mileage. It might be something as simple as not counting your daily 2 mile drive to get your mail (which also has business mail in it) or your drive to the bank (where you deposit a check from your client). If you’re not counting these extra miles you drive every business day, it really adds up. So that you can prevent this from happening, you might want to take a peek at Business Mileage that you didn’t know counted.

The Math: 2 Miles a day x 253 possible Work days

Total Time Not Tracked: 506 Miles

Total Money Lost By Not Tracking: $250+

B) You track business mileage, except when you forget your logs.

Good Job! Almost… Okay, everyone forgets things once in a while. But before you brush aside the lapse of mileage memory, look at how much money you might be missing when you forget your logs! Let’s say you forget to log one day of travel out of each week. If you’re not traveling too often, that’s 300 miles a week, roughly 70 miles a day. And let’s say you forget to record one day out of each work week because you forgot. That’s 3600 miles not recorded in a year. Take a look at how much that little memory leak is costing you.

The Math: 70 miles (one day) not tracked x 52 (once a week)

Total Miles Not Tracked: 3600

Total Money Wasted By Forgetting To Log Miles: $1800+

C) You never track your business mileage.

People in this category get the red alert. First off, why aren’t you tracking your business mileage? Business mileage is perhaps one of the biggest ways to get a tax break from the IRS. Maybe you have a desire to throw out massive amounts of money, or perhaps the IRS is too intimidating. Either way, people in this category might as well have holes in their pockets due to the amount of money they’re losing!

The Math: 22,000 Miles Driven Purely for Business

Total Miles Not Tracked: 22,000

Total Amount of Money Lost By Not Tracking: $11,000 +

With figures like that, it’s easy to see why it’s important to keep track of your business mileage. So, how much money are you loosing each tax year by not logging all your miles?

How Calculations were made:

Estimates based on average business mileage times the 2010 business mileage rate of 0.50 with the average business distance driven of 20,000 miles per year.

Business Trips That You Didn’t Know Counted

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010

20dollarbill thumb Business Trips That You Didnt Know CountedDo you only write off the business trips you take to meetings?

Or perhaps that 2 hour drive that you took to see your client?

If those are the extent of your write offs, you’re probably missing out on some interesting business mileage write-offs.

We’re not talking about the business trips you take from the office to pick up office supplies, the jaunt to the bank to drop off that check from your merchant, or even the much-coveted home-office-to-outside-office trip. We’re talking about the hidden ‘Easter Egg’ business trips that most people probably didn’t know counted.

  1. Purchasing a Gift – You’re close to closing the deal with your newest client who happens to be a baseball fan. You’re pretty sure that deal would be sealed if you bought him a Dodger’s jersey. Did you count the drive as a business trip? Why not? According to the IRS, any trip that is for business counts towards your mileage deduction. That means even something like driving to buy a gift for your client- as long as it was purely for business- is okay to count.

That also means that if your sister watched your kids for you while you had to go to a business meeting, you can buy her a gift and write off the mileage it took you to get there.

  1. Driving to the movies – If you’re entertaining a client and trying to get them to sign on with you, your trip driving them to the movies is perfectly acceptable. In fact, driving a client to any event/ food place counts, as long as it’s to either discuss the terms of your contract, or woo them over to signing up for your services. But don’t try to fool Uncle Sam into thinking your kids are business associates!
  1. Driving business partner/client to a business meeting destination – Is your business partner repeatedly asking you to help them get to business destinations? Well now you can say yes with a smile- because the miles you spend lugging around your business partner for business trips counts towards your total mileage write off! (Make sure you have them pay you back for your kindness with your favorite beverage!)

Friendly CarCheckUp reminder: It’s never worth it to ‘stretch the truth’ with the IRS, unless you’re craving an audit. Use these tips as a guideline, and contact a professional tax preparer if you have any questions regarding your specific trips and circumstances. An easy way to figure out if you should write it off: Did the drive purely have to do with business? So, have you ever forgotten to write up hidden business trip gems like these?
