Cost Segregation Studies
Real estate holdings represent an enormous capital investment, and a cost segregation analysis can provide an opportunity to realize an immediate return on investment through accelerated tax savings. The cost segregation process identifies building components that can be depreciated over shorter periods than the standard 39-year life of a commercial building and allocates costs to these tax-favored asset classes. Using architects, engineers and real estate experts, combined with an in-depth understanding of IRS cost segregation guidance, our team prepares cost segregation reports that support accelerated depreciation and material tax savings.
With decades of cost segregation experience, our team is focused on providing the optimal tax result for you real estate investment. Our process includes:
- Conducting interviews, coordinating the process and determining the feasibility of a study
- Reviewing contractor invoices, purchase agreements, blueprints and architectural plans
- Conducting an on-site inspection
- Preparing a detailed report detailing cost reconciliation and tax classification
- Working with clients to implement changes to fixed asset systems
