Hey ​@Nuvista Haven ! I’ll be curious to see what our community says since we can’t know the answer for everyone, but in the meantime I looked at the data we have from our Mogul users. ~46% of them have Management Agreements that specify they handle the pass-through taxes for their owners.

I just have the passthrough tax amount set properly on Hospitable and on the OTAs, and then when the taxes are due each month, I pay them to the tax authorities. Are you looking for any more detailed info than that?

Is there a more automated option, that is quite a lot of admin work.

We use Avalara MyLodgeTax in some jurisdictions ​@Nuvista Haven - but I agree having it more automated (if you’re not on Direct Premium), would be great.

So the only taxes I have to handle are direct premiums local tax, as Hospitable has not made an agreement with the easiest county in NYS to work with yet. And also nys sales tax and local tax for booking.com. I have stated with the old vrbo integration to avoid remitting local taxes due to Hospitable not remiting both taxes, and Airbnb remits everything. There are platforms that do the work for you. But I don't mess around with any of that.
