A Publication of RINA Accountants & Advisors -- December, 2021


As we say goodbye to 2021, RINA’s Real Estate Group would like to share with you some tax insights regarding vacation homes, property improvements and California’s mandatory withholding requirement. 

Of course, none of us likes to pay taxes, but it could be worse – during the Middle Ages, European governments placed a tax on soap, and it remained in effect for a very long time. Great Britain didn't repeal its soap tax until 1835 – so glad they cleaned up their act! 


The RINA Real Estate Group’s goal is to minimize your tax burden while maximizing the value of your real estate income and holdings. 


We hope you enjoy our newsletter and we hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
