Cost Segregation Studies

Accelerate your depreciation and increase cash flow with a cost segregation study. By reclassifying assets, you can write off costs much faster than the standard 27.5 or 39-year schedules.

We work with qualified engineers to perform these studies, often resulting in tens of thousands of dollars in immediate tax savings for our clients.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about our service.

What is 'Real Estate Professional' status?
It allows you to deduct rental losses against your active income (like W-2 wages), which is normally restricted. Qualifying requires meeting specific hour thresholds.
Can I use a 1031 exchange for a flip?
Generally, no. 1031 exchanges are for properties held for investment or business use, not primarily for sale (inventory).
How does depreciation recapture work?
When you sell a property, you pay tax on the depreciation you claimed (or could have claimed) at a maximum rate of 25%.
Do you handle short-term rentals (Airbnb)?
Yes, short-term rentals have unique tax rules regarding substantial services and self-employment tax that we navigate precisely.
