Stop overpaying the IRS on real estate.
A cost segregation study pulls a chunk of your purchase price off your taxes now — not 30 years from now. Engineered, defensible, and built by people who’ll be there if the IRS ever asks questions.
In plain English
What a cost segregation study actually does for you.
When you buy real estate, the IRS makes you depreciate the building over 27.5 or 39 years— a slow trickle of deductions. But a lot of what’s inside the building — flooring, fixtures, cabinetry, parking, landscaping — legally qualifies for 5, 7, or 15-year schedules instead.
We find every piece that qualifies, document it the way the IRS expects, and hand the result to your CPA. Translation: bigger deductions this year, a smaller tax bill, and cash back in your pocket to put into the next deal.
What this typically looks like
$50,000+ off year-one taxes on a $1M property
A $1 million commercial property typically generates $50,000 or morein first-year tax savings through accelerated depreciation. Larger portfolios routinely turn tax bills into six-figure refunds. Want your number? Try the calculator — it’s free.
What you actually get
Four things working in your favor on every study.
An engineer and a CPA on the same team
Most firms have one or the other. We have both, working together — so more components get correctly reclassified and more of your purchase price comes off your taxes now.
Software built for this exact job
Our analysis engine was built specifically for cost segregation. The result: a faster turnaround, fewer errors, and a study you can hand straight to your CPA without rework.
Same humans, start to finish
One point of contact from kickoff through delivery — and after, if your CPA has questions when they file. No tickets, no handoffs, no chatbots.
If the IRS questions it, we defend it
Audit defense is built into the price. Documentation, engineering testimony, and CPA-side guidance — for the life of the study, no extra invoice.
What it means for you
Six ways a study pays you back.
Bigger deductions in year one
Capture in 1–15 years what would otherwise drip out over 27.5 or 39.
A smaller tax bill, now
Cut current-year taxes and free up capital you can put to work this year.
Cash to fund the next deal
Roll the savings into your down payment on the next property and compound the portfolio faster.
Stacks with 1031 exchanges
Pair with 1031s and other deferral strategies for years of compounding tax advantage.
Faster than traditional firms
Most studies land in 2–3 weeks — not the months a traditional firm can take.
Peace of mind, included
If the IRS audits, we defend the study at no extra cost. You’re never holding the bag alone.
What you can count on
Three things we won’t bend on.
- Defensible work. Every reclassification documented to IRS standards — no shortcuts.
- Plug-and-play for your CPA. A study and worksheet your tax preparer can drop straight into your return.
- We don’t disappear after delivery. If the IRS asks questions, we answer them.
