Understanding Cost Segregation
Not familiar with cost segregation? Here’s a quick overview:
What It Is:
A tax strategy that speeds up depreciation of property components, leading to big tax savings.
Who Benefits:
Owners of investment or commercial properties.
Why It Matters:
By breaking down a property into parts (like plumbing and electrical systems), owners can deduct these parts faster than the usual 27.5 or 39 years, increasing cash flow and reducing taxable income.

Here's A Detailed Example:
Let’s say a client owns a commercial building worth $1 million. Normally, they would depreciate this property over 39 years, leading to an annual depreciation expense of about $25,641.
With a cost segregation study, we might identify $300,000 worth of the building’s components (like lighting, carpeting, and specialized electrical systems) that can be depreciated over 5, 7, or 15 years instead. Here’s how it could break down:
5-Year Property: $100,000 worth of components (e.g., certain types of fixtures and fittings).
7-Year Property: $85,000 worth of components (e.g., office furniture and equipment).
15-Year Property: $115,000 worth of components (e.g., land improvements like sidewalks and landscaping).
Thanks to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, many of these components can be eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, allowing your client to deduct the full value of these components in the first year.
So, instead of a flat $25,641 annual deduction, your client could potentially see over $350,000 in deductions in the first year alone. This leads to substantial tax savings and improved cash flow right from the start.
