If you’ve recently purchased, constructed, or renovated a building, you may be leaving significant tax savings on the table! A Cost Segregation Study is a powerful tax strategy that enables property owners to accelerate depreciation deductions, resulting in increased cash flow and reduced tax liabilities.
What is a Cost Segregation Study?
A Cost Segregation Study is a detailed analysis that identifies and reclassifies assets within a building, allowing certain components to be depreciated over shorter periods (typically 5, 7, or 15 years instead of 27.5 or 39 years for commercial properties). This reclassification helps maximize tax savings, especially for those who have made large capital investments in commercial real estate.
By examining your property through a cost segregation study, you can:
- Accelerate Depreciation Deductions – Shorter depreciation periods translate into faster tax deductions.
- Increase Cash Flow – Immediate tax savings increase available capital to reinvest in your business.
- Enhance Investment Returns – Improved cash flow can make your property investment more profitable over time.
Who Should Consider a Cost Segregation Study?
A cost segregation study is highly beneficial for commercial property owners, including:
- Business owners with buildings or facilities
- Investors holding multi-family properties
- Real estate developers and construction companies
Whether you own a retail store, manufacturing facility, office building, or apartment complex, a cost segregation study can help you reduce your tax liabilities.
