Frequently Asked Questions

Why do Sarasota contractors get audited for seasonal payroll fluctuations?

Sarasota's luxury construction market is highly seasonal. Carriers flag contractors whose payroll spikes during the winter season and drops in summer. This pattern triggers audits where carriers try to impute additional payroll. Audit Monkey documents the legitimate seasonal nature of your work and disputes these charges.
