absolutely the best. They will work with you in everyway they can and they stand behind what they say their product will do. - Millie S.

This was my first time attending an auction online and I had way too much fun. The questions I had on my account were answered immediately. - Sabrina B.

I am so glad I found this couple to help me sell the rest of my mom’s stuff! I wish I had found them sooner because it would have saved me so much trouble and headaches. I would give them more stars ✨ if I could. The next time I need to sell a house full of stuff, I am contacting them! They are awesome 🤩 and very flexible too. My kind of people. - Jennifer G.

Honest folks to deal with. - Samuel M.

Interesting Combination of Items from Auction to Auction.... Very Good to Work With.... They Go Above and Beyond. - Michael B.

The Tax Advantages of Running Your Own Online Auction Business

May 02, 20252 min read

The Tax Advantages of Running Your Own Online Auction Business

Starting an Auction Spear online auction business isn’t just a flexible way to earn income, it also opens the door to a range of tax advantages that traditional employees don’t enjoy. If you're running online auctions from home, the IRS allows you to deduct many of your business-related costs, which can significantly reduce your taxable income.

Deductible Expenses:
Everything you use to keep your online auction business running may qualify as a business deduction. That includes your computer, shipping supplies, photography equipment, seller platform subscription, advertising costs, and even the portion of your internet and phone bill used for business. If you use a room in your house exclusively for your online auction operations, you may qualify for the home office deduction as well.

Vehicle Use:
If you're sourcing inventory from estate sales, business liquidations, or commercial asset reductions, the miles you drive for these trips can be deducted. Be sure to log mileage or actual vehicle expenses for accuracy and compliance.

Inventory and COGS:
Inventory purchases and the cost of goods sold (COGS) are major components of an online auction business. These are fully deductible and directly lower your taxable profit.

Self-Employed Retirement Plans:
With a SEP IRA or Solo 401(k), you can contribute a large portion of your profits toward retirement—far beyond what traditional employees can contribute—while also lowering your taxable income.

Health Insurance and Services:
Self-employed individuals can often deduct their health insurance premiums, and hiring contractors (like photographers, copywriters, or virtual assistants) to help grow your auction business is also deductible.

The takeaway? Running your own Auction Spear online auction business not only puts you in control of your income but also provides real opportunities to keep more of what you earn through smart, legal tax strategies.

Take advantage of the tax benefits today, contact Auction Spear now to get started with your own online auction business. Visit our website at AuctionSpearinc.net
