Sales Tax VDA. Clean up back tax, on your terms.
Discovered you should have been collecting sales tax in 12 states for the last 4 years? A Voluntary Disclosure Agreement (VDA) limits the damage: states typically cap the lookback period at 3-4 years (vs unlimited if they find you first), waive all penalties (often 10-25% of tax), and accept your initial filing anonymously while you negotiate. We file VDAs in all 46 sales-tax states, negotiate the lookback period, prepare the schedules, and convert to ongoing registration when settled.
How we handle Conservation Easement, end-to-end.
A conservation easement is a permanent restriction on the use of land, typically donated to a qualified land trust to preserve the land's natural or open-space character.
Eligibility review
Land must have conservation value: scenic, ecological, historic, open-space, or recreational. We assess whether your land qualifies. Most rural and undeveloped properties do; urban properties rarely.
Land trust selection
Donation must be to a qualified land trust (501(c)(3)). We refer to local and national land trusts (Land Trust Alliance, The Nature Conservancy, regional trusts). They accept the easement and hold the restriction in perpetuity.
Engineering + appraisal
Engineering work documents the conservation value. Qualified appraisal determines diminished land value (the deduction amount). IRS scrutinizes appraisals; we use highly credentialed appraisers with conservation easement experience.
Legal documentation + closing
Easement document recorded with county recorder. Permanent restriction runs with the land. Donor receives appraisal-supported deduction. Coordination with attorney specializing in conservation easements.
