Is there any place to find a list of states that charge sales tax on commercial leases? [x-post r/tax]
I just took over managing a lot of commercial leases scattered all over the country. I know not all states charge sales tax on commercial leases, but some do. Just wondering if there's any type of guide or publication on this type of thing, or if I need to go to each county/state website and dig through their published tax codes. Thanks!
