The Augusta Tax Strategy lets S corporation owners pay themselves tax-free money from their business, completely legal under Section 280A of the tax code. In this podcast, I break down exactly how this powerful Augusta rule tax strategy works, the 5 critical rules you must follow, and how to implement it correctly so you stay on the right side of the IRS.

Here's the deal: If you rent your home to your business for 14 days or less per year for legitimate purposes like board meetings, strategic planning sessions, or client events, that rental income can be 100% tax-free to you personally. Meanwhile, your S corporation gets a full business deduction for the expense. This tax strategy for small business owners is a win-win when done right.

Most business owners have never heard of the Section 280A rental strategy, and their accountants aren't telling them about it. That's a missed opportunity for thousands in tax savings for S corporation owners every single year. If you're focused on tax planning for 2026, this is one deduction you can't afford to ignore.

In this podcast, you'll learn what the Augusta tax strategy is and where it comes from, how your S corporation can legally rent your home, the 14-day rule that makes this income tax-free, fair market value requirements for rental rates, documentation the IRS expects to see, why this doesn't work for sole proprietors, and real examples of how I use this strategy myself.

Whether you're exploring tax saving strategies for high income earners or just looking to reduce your S corporation taxes with smart tax planning strategies, the Augusta strategy is one of the most overlooked strategies available.
