    Spec houses

    Have a tp that runs a landscaping business.(primary) Sometimes tp will build a spec house and sell it.(short time) Question is shouldn't this also be on a schedule c.(gain) which makes it subject to se tax.?

    tp bought 3 lots. built 3 houses on them and sold them in 2021. In talking with TP it appears there will be about 5 or 6 of these in 2022. I say it belongs on a schedule c subject to se. prior to 2021 , 1 every other year. Your thoughts

    Yes. Sch C. Expenses are capitalized. IRS considers these people as dealers.
    Taxes after all are the dues that we pay for the privileges of membership in an organized society. - FDR
