Real Estate Agent Income Tax Calculator​

Use the simple tax calculator below to estimate your 2025 tax liability as a real estate agent. Enter your annual gross income, your total deductions (the sum of all the expenses from the worksheet that apply to you), and your state tax rate (as a percentage). The calculator will compute an estimate of your federal income tax, state income tax, and self-employment tax for the year, based on 2025 tax rates.

How it works: This tax estimator applies the 2025 federal tax brackets (for a single filer) to your taxable income (income minus deductions), calculates the 15.3% self-employment tax on your net earnings, and adds an estimate of state income tax.

It’s a handy way to answer that burning question of “How much do real estate agents pay in taxes?” for your specific situation. Keep in mind it’s a rough estimate – actual taxes can vary based on your full tax situation (marital status, other income, credits, etc.), but it should be in the right ballpark.

Note: If you live in a state with no income tax, enter 0% for state rate. If your state has tiers/brackets, entering your top marginal rate or an average effective rate will do. And remember, this calculator assumes the single filer tax brackets for federal taxes. If you are married filing jointly, your federal tax may be lower due to wider brackets.

Feel free to adjust the numbers and run it multiple times. This can help you plan – for instance, you can see the tax savings if you increase your deductions or if your income changes.
