Chicago's Hispanic and Latino communities have shaped this city for generations. You can see it in the family-owned bakeries that have served the same blocks for decades, the murals that tell neighborhood stories and the festivals that fill the streets every summer. Those roots grow stronger every time a family buys a home, opens a business or passes a tradition down.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, we're celebrating the people who keep that spirit alive, including the REALTORS® helping their neighbors find a place to call home.

✅ What appraisers will expect under the new format
✅ Extra documentation that may now be required

W-2 or independent contractor status changes how you're taxed, what you can deduct and how much you should be setting aside. CPA Darion Wiggs breaks down the numbers every Chicago REALTOR® should know, from mileage rates to when an S-Corp election starts to make sense.
