The income taxes on your commissions are paid by April 15th, just like any other taxes. As you work through your brokerage, they will keep records of the total commissions that you have earned. At the end of the calender year, you will receive a 1099 form instead of a w-2. When you complete your tax forms for the IRS and the local state entity, that is the form where your tax liabilites come from.
My advice to you is to keep every business related reciept you get, keep track of your business related car mileage, automatically put 40% of your commissions into a separate bank account and NEVER TOUCH IT!
If you do those things, at the end of the year you should be good!

Real estate tax laws in the United States vary state by state. However, I do not know of any state that requires the seller to prorate real estate taxes. Instead the proration of real estate taxes is local custom and generally written into an agreement to buy or sell real estate.

You bought a house in 2009 and the property tax was already paid. When will you start to pay property taxes in 2010?
When you begin to pay real estate taxes in 2010 depends on three things: (1) when real estate taxes are levied and payable in your taxing district; (2) how you agreed to prorate real estate taxes in the contract to purchase the property; and (3) whether your lender required you to set up an escrow account that included an amount for real estate taxes. Each state prescribes the effective date for real estate taxes or tax day. Each taxing district within the state must comply with state tax laws concerning tax levies and the billing and collection of taxes, but this may include one tax payment each year or up to four equal installments throughout the year (two is typical). Most standard contracts to purchase require that real estate taxes be prorated on a calendar year basis. A majority of homeowners today have escrow accounts that they pay into each month so that real estate taxes can be paid when they are due.
