Can someone verify for me that home inspections are subject to sales tax in New York?


And a follow up for my fellow New York peeps...
If so, do you typically add the sales tax on to your fee, or do you build it in to the fee?

Thanks -

Dave,


I am not a NY resident. However, you can download the manual to sales tax in NY from the following link:

I don't believe that Home Inspections are a taxable item. However, I would make sure if I were you.

I finally found the answer in this advisory opinion:

Which states that home inspections are not subject to sales tax in New York.
