What is Cost Segregation?

Whether you have or are constructing a new building, expanding an existing facility, purchasing a new facility, or updating an older facility your property can cause much bigger tax savings than you are used to. Substantial tax and cash flow opportunities can be achieved for those who employ the available tax opportunities.

A cost segregation study (“CSS”) is an engineering-based study of all costs associated with the construction, expansion or acquisition of a building.  The purpose of this is to classify these costs as either real or personal property, with the personal property additions being depreciated on an accelerated basis.  Normally, the deprecation basis for these assets are between 27 and 39 years.  However, through a proper cost segregation study, some of these costs may qualify for a 5, 7 or 15-year depreciable period, resulting in a savings of up to 22%.
