It is an IRS-approved engineering and accounting analysis that breaks down your commercial building into individual components. Instead of depreciating the entire property over a slow 39-year schedule, we reclassify parts of it (like specialized electrical, flooring, or landscaping) into 5-, 7-, or 15-year lifespans. This front-loads your deductions, leaving you with massive immediate tax savings.

Cost segregation is commonly considered for income-producing properties. It can be a helpful option for property owners looking for a more strategic approach to depreciation and tax planning.

A study can help uncover depreciation opportunities that may not be visible in a standard building-level approach. That can support stronger tax savings planning for your property.

No, you can still maximize your savings. We can perform a retroactive "look-back" study on properties you’ve owned for years. Best of all, through an IRS Section 481(a) adjustment, you can claim all your missed past depreciation as a single, lump-sum deduction on your current tax return. You do not need to amend past tax returns.

While depreciation itself is a non-cash expense on your income statement, the massive tax shield it creates reduces the cash you pay to the IRS. Every dollar kept in your pocket is immediate liquidity that can be injected back into property operations, capital improvements, or portfolio expansion—directly accelerating your overall asset valuation.

Yes. Under current tax laws reinstated by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), qualifying assets placed in service carry a permanent 100% bonus depreciation rate. This means that the property components our study reclassifies into shorter recovery periods can often be written off entirely in year one, supercharging your immediate cash flow.
