What Is Cost Segregation?
Cost segregation is the method of re-classifying components of your commercial building from real property to personal property. This process allows the assets to be depreciated on a 5-, 7-, or 15-year schedule instead of the traditional 27.5- or 39-year depreciation schedule of real property. This application reduces the amount of income taxes owed, which generates substantial cash flow. Owners often use this money to reinvest in their business, purchase more property, or apply to their principal payment.
All properties owned 15 years or less, purchased for $150,000+, and will be held for at least 3 years from time of study, should request a free Cost Segregation estimate.
How Does Cost Segregation Work?
A cost segregation study accelerates the depreciation of building/renovation components into shorter depreciation categories such as 5, 7, or 15-year rather than the conventional 27.5 and 39-year class lives. Five and 7-year items might include decorative building elements, specialty electrical, carpeting, and more. Fifteen year items may include landscaping, parking lots, security systems, decking, gates, etc.
This engineering-based cost segregation study results in a much higher depreciation expense and significantly reduced taxable income for the property owner. Best of all, tax code ruling states cost segregation can be applied to categories of buildings purchased since 1986, including renovations. There is no need to amend your tax returns.
