About HomeBasis: Tax Basis Tracker
Every home improvement you make could save you thousands in taxes when you sell — but only if you can prove it. HomeBasis helps you track your home's adjusted cost basis so you're never caught off guard at tax time. Whether you just replaced your roof or finished a full kitchen remodel, HomeBasis keeps a running tally of every capital improvement, calculates your adjusted basis in real time, and stores your receipts — all in one place. Why it matters: Most homeowners don't realize that capital improvements — like a new HVAC system, a deck addition, or a bathroom renovation — increase your home's cost basis and can reduce the capital gains tax you owe when you sell. The IRS requires documentation, and a shoebox full of receipts won't cut it. What HomeBasis does: Tracks your adjusted cost basis automatically as you log improvements Guides you on what counts as a capital improvement vs. a repair, based on IRS rules Stores receipts, invoices, and contractor documents with cloud sync Estimates your capital gains with Section 121 exclusion support ($250K single / $500K married) Records purchase price, closing costs, and selling expenses Exports clean PDF and CSV reports your CPA will love Built for real homeowners: You don't need to be a tax expert. HomeBasis walks you through setup with a simple onboarding wizard — just enter your purchase details and start logging improvements. The built-in classification helper tells you whether an expense qualifies as a capital improvement so you never have to guess. Your records, always ready: When it's time to sell, hand your CPA a professional export instead of scrambling through old emails and bank statements. HomeBasis keeps everything organized by property, by year, and by category — so you're always prepared. Privacy first: Your financial data is yours. HomeBasis uses secure cloud storage to sync your data across devices, and your information is never sold or shared. Download HomeBasis today and start building a tax record that could save you thousands. Note: HomeBasis does not provide tax advise. Always consult a tax professional.
