Question i am thinking about starting a dba (sole proprietorship) home improvement company. this will be a small business, remodeling bathrooms and kitchens, building a deck, etc. most of the work will be subcontracted out. what will my tax liabilities be and how often (when) do i need to file? do i have to make a profit in order to file?
Answer Hi Alice sorry for the delayed answer. Yes you need to have a proofit then you must file quarterly estimated taxes and add 15% for the self employment tax
do not forget to ask your subs for a W9 so you can file 1099s this is iregardless of profit, good luck with your ne business
Even if this does not relate to taxes you should be sure that you and your contractors have workers compensation and liability insurance before you undertake any work
