Real Estate & Cost Segregation

Evaluate whether a study deserves a closer look

Our cost segregation services begin with the property and the available information. The firm's existing materials describe engineering-based studies, an initial evaluation, and a project-specific cost proposal. The discussion is about the potential value of a study for that property, not a standard savings figure applied to every building.

Cost segregation brings building costs and depreciation questions into focus. We help owners consider those questions alongside cash flow and the broader tax picture, with technical conclusions left to the property-specific review.

Consider the project and its documentation

The existing service covers new construction, purchases of existing properties, renovations, expansions, and leasehold improvements. A review may also concern a building already in service. These are situations to discuss, not assurances that every property will benefit.

The source materials emphasize engineering and cost-estimating work supported by records. Drawings, construction costs, site information, and the resulting report are part of that discussion. The scope and available documentation help define the work involved.

• Acquired buildings and properties already in service.
• Construction, renovation, remodeling, and expansion projects.
• Office and facility leasehold improvements.
• Available cost records and the questions a study needs to address.

Keep the accounting useful after the transaction

Property owners also need clear operating information. Our accounting services include construction project accounting, fix-and-flip project cost and profitability reporting, and rental-property financial statements. Those services help organize the numbers for management discussions as well as tax planning.

Tell us about the property and what has changed. We can discuss the accounting support or cost segregation evaluation relevant to your situation without assuming a particular deduction, return, or tax result.
