Real estate accountant
Unlock the full potential of your real estate investments with our expert real estate accountants. At Taxory, we provide personalized accounting & bookkeeping services tailored to your real estate business.
Real estate is a massive industry in Canada that, for many years, allows investors to grow wealth and plan their retirement. Even the last couple of years, where it was a bit of a rollercoaster, have kept the industry booming. Whether you are a real estate agent, a beginner real estate investor or a seasoned property owner, you have something in common: you need a real estate accountant who can help with taxes and bookkeeping and let you focus on more critical tasks such as buying and selling properties.
At Taxory, we offer real estate accounting services to our clients. We have experience with individual real estate investors who own just a few properties in their name and property management companies owning dozens of buildings. We also work with real estate agents who receive commission from sales or commission from finding tenants for multi-tenant buildings. In addition, some of our team members are real estate investors, so we know from our experience what questions or problems you face during your real estate investment path.
We offer the following real estate accounting services
- Bookkeeping for real estate. Doing your bookkeeping takes time, and it’s challenging to do it without proper training; that is why our bookkeepers, who already have experience with real estate and adequate education, can help you with day-to-day bookkeeping. We offer multiple bookkeeping packages that target businesses of any size and provide free tax preparation services with each of our bookkeeping packages. Our team primarily uses QuickBooks Online for bookkeeping, but we also have experience with other software.
- Real estate tax preparation services. At Taxory, we follow the latest changes in tax law, and our real estate tax accountants will help you with tax preparation for your real estate investments. If you own properties in your name, we prepare your T1 income tax (sole proprietor or rental tax return). For corporations that also own properties, we prepare T2 corporate tax returns and file them to CRA.
- Real estate tax planning services. Real estate law is an essential part of any investment business. For example, should you buy a property in your name or through a corporation? You can only answer that question with a deep understanding of real estate tax law, so our tax accountants can answer your questions and help you decide on the best way to structure your company to ensure you comply with tax law and maximize your net income.
- New business incorporation. Eventually, your real estate business will grow enough to take advantage of small business deductions, and you may decide to incorporate. Our accountants are ready to help ensure the correct business structure for maximum benefits.
- Payroll services for real estate corporations. One of the requirements to switch your corporation income from passive to active (which affects the corporate tax rate) is to have full-time employees on the payroll. Our company will manage your payroll to ensure the payroll remittance calculation is done correctly and your employees receive everything on time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Should I buy real estate property in my name or a corporation?
The short answer would be to buy it in your name. That is the case for all beginner investors who own less than a dozen properties or do not have any commercial properties. However, we need to look into each case individually. The reason is once you as an individual own a real estate property, the income you get is taxed based on your personal income tax rate, which depends on your gross income. However, buying a property in your corporation name becomes a passive income and is taxed close to 50%. Converting your corporation from passive to active is only possible if you fall under the eligibility criteria for active business income. We recommend beginner investors buy real estate in their name, and once they have an extensive portfolio, you can look into incorporating your real estate business.
