Capital gains tax is one of the most important factors affecting investors, business owners, and real estate holders. When you sell an asset such as stocks, real estate, or a business, the profit you earn is called a capital gain — and it is taxable.
When it comes to reducing your tax bill, most people have heard the terms “tax deduction” and “tax credit,” but many don’t fully understand the difference. Confusing the two can lead to missed opportunities for savings—and nobody wants to pay more taxes than necessary. At Compass Tax Center, we help clients navigate these nuances so they can maximize their refunds and reduce their taxable income.
Running your own business or freelancing offers freedom, flexibility, and the chance to pursue your passions—but it also comes with unique tax responsibilities. Unlike traditional employees, self-employed individuals and small business owners must track income, expenses, and deductions throughout the year. Mistakes can lead to missed deductions, underpaid taxes, or even penalties.
