Q: What licenses do I need to sell wholesale and used items obtained from various sources online, through eBay and Poshmark, from home?
A: Welcome,Flipping used goods has a twist: secondhand items bought from individuals do not come with a resale certificate, while items bought from wholesalers do. A sales tax permit is the central document either way, since eBay and Poshmark sales are still sales, and a business license makes the flipping in order. Working from home can bring a home occupation permit. Some used goods, such as electronics, jewelry or children's items, have special rules. We find out which of these apply to Jenna Flipping Finds and fill out the applications. Here is the full map, item by item.
1. Business license: A business license for a resale operation MAY ask what kinds of used or overstock items you handle, where stock is stored, and whether you buy from the public or only from sellers. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY look at pallets stacked in a garage, delivery trucks pulling up, buyers collecting orders and boxes piling up outside. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be required because resold items are taxable, and a resale certificate often lets you buy liquidation lots without paying tax twice. 4. Secondhand dealer registration: Businesses that buy used goods from the public may need to log sellers and hold items for a waiting period. 5. Purchase receipts: Invoices for each pallet or lot may be requested to show where stock came from. 6. Landlord clearance statement: A signed note that storing stock at home is acceptable may accompany the application. 7. Company papers: A DBA, an LLC or a tax ID number MAY make sense for Jenna Flipping Finds, and we prepare all of these documents on this site, so everything can be ordered in one place.

You can start selling the moment the paperwork is approved, and the price is entirely yours: you decide your own markup, and tax is added at the register.
The set to start with is a business license, a sales tax permit, a resale certificate for your wholesalers, a DBA for the boutique name and, if your living room is the showroom, a home occupation permit. Several partners together are best placed in an LLC.
If you order a business license and it turns out you also need another one, such as a home occupation permit, we obtain both for the service fee of the business license. The govt's annual tax and application fees are separate and not included; we find the applications and fill them out for you.
The first step is the company: form an LLC, then get the business license and the EIN. A general contractor license MAY be required for construction work, so we confirm whether your jobs are large enough to need it.
Your consulting is a separate line. Helping clients pick technology usually needs only the business license, but clinical services would need a professional license, so keep them apart. A seller's permit is needed if you resell equipment.
