• What types of properties can benefit from cost segregation?

  Cost segregation can be beneficial for various commercial properties, including office buildings, retail spaces, industrial facilities, apartments, and even some residential rental properties. The most significant benefits are typically seen in properties valued at $750,000 or more.

• How do I know if my property is eligible for cost segregation?

  Eligibility depends on factors such as the type of property, its value, and when it was acquired or improved. Generally, if you’ve purchased, constructed, or significantly renovated a commercial property in the last 15 years, it may be a good candidate for a cost segregation study.

• What is the process for conducting a cost segregation study?

  The process typically involves an initial assessment, followed by a detailed analysis of your property by our engineering and tax experts. We then prepare a comprehensive report identifying assets that can be reclassified for accelerated depreciation, and provide guidance on implementing these findings in your tax strategy.

• How can cost segregation impact my business's cash flow?

  Cost segregation can significantly improve cash flow by accelerating depreciation deductions. This results in lower taxable income in the early years of property ownership, potentially freeing up substantial cash that can be reinvested in your business.

• Are there deadlines for implementing cost segregation?

  While it’s ideal to conduct a cost segregation study in the year you acquire or improve a property, studies can be performed on properties placed in service in prior years. There are specific IRS procedures for claiming these “catch-up” deductions without amending prior year returns.

• How often should we review our cost segregation opportunities?

  It’s advisable to consider a cost segregation study whenever you acquire, construct, or significantly renovate a property. Additionally, changes in tax laws may create new opportunities, so regular consultations with tax professionals are recommended to ensure you’re maximizing your benefits.
