What is Cost Segregation?

Cost segregation (AKA Accelerated Depreciation) is a method of separating and distinguishing personal from real property. By applying its principles, significant portions of building costs can be depreciated in as few as 5 years, instead of the standard 27.5 years for residential or 39 years for commercial property. Maximum taxpayer benefits from accelerating depreciation can only be realized after conducting a comprehensive, engineering-based study. We offer upfront estimates of your tax savings at no charge.

Historically, a commercial building represented an enormous upfront investment that depreciated very slowly over 39 years, whether or not the building was completely paid for. Uncle Sam had a lock on building assets and returned that money, bit-by-bit, for up to 39 years. Recent IRS rulings have unlocked huge portions of building assets through the use of accelerated depreciation via a method called cost segregation. By segregating costs, we frontload your depreciation deductions into the early years of ownership which means up to 40% of your buildings assets can be freed-up to increase your cash flow! With cash in hand, you can now purchase additional properties, remodel current property, or invest it however you like! 

For decades, Fortune 1000 companies have used cost segregation to increase their cash flow and defer taxes. Recent changes in the tax code and a series of revenue rulings and directions from the IRS make this service available to almost any taxpayer that owns a building or leasehold improvements. Now is the perfect time to enjoy the significant benefits cost segregation will provide!

-Who Qualifies for a Cost Segregation Study? 

Any property owner that has done the following since 1986:

• Purchased a commercial building or facility 
• Constructed a new commercial building 
• Renovated, remodeled, restored or expanded an existing facility
• Paid for facility leasehold improvements
• Planned for a future 1031 exchange  

-What are the Benefits of a Cost Segregation Study?

• Increased cash flow
• Large income tax deferrals
• Independent verification of depreciation schedules
• Audit protection
• Substantial catch-up depreciation
• Suite-by-suite breakdowns of building costs
• Bonus depreciation qualification

Consider this recent example:

A newly developed manufacturing facility cost $4.6 million to build. Under the simple 39-year straight-line formula, the owner would have depreciated his property by $600,000 in the first five years of operation. But, by having a cost segregation study conducted, the owner was able to depreciate the facility by $2,000,000 over the same five years!
