The Augusta Rule often gets reduced to one sentence:

Use your home for business purposes for 14 days or fewer.

But the 14-day limit is the easy part.

You still need fair-market rental comps, a lease agreement, details from each event, and a clear record of everything in one place.

David Carson built 280 Tax Break to help tax pros handle that process in 15 minutes or less.

David is the founder and CEO of 280 Tax Break, a platform built specifically around IRC Section 280A(g), also known as the Augusta Rule.

Instead of piecing a case together with disconnected spreadsheets and separate documents, the platform helps you:

• Generate automated property comps
• Create a lease agreement
• Invite clients to enter details about their events
• Keep the case information organized
• Produce one PDF containing the interview, lease agreement, and comps

David says tax pros can use the platform to complete a case in 15 minutes or less.

That can turn the Augusta Rule into more than another strategy you mention to a client.

It can become a high-revenue case and a simple introduction to more comprehensive tax planning.

In the interview, David also explains:

• Why the Augusta Rule is straightforward when you follow the law
• The importance of staying within 14 days of business use
• Why fair-market rental comps matter
• Which types of residences may qualify
• What can make a property ineligible

At the Tax Advisory Conference 2026, David will demonstrate the 280 Tax Break platform and answer questions about the Augusta Rule.

He will also be joined by his partner, who is a CPA, to discuss how their firm and software have worked together to create results for their customers.

Because knowing the rule is one thing.

Having a simple process for creating and organizing the case is another.

Meet David at the Tax Advisory Conference 2026 on August 25 and 26 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
