Cost Segregation Studies
Cost segregation involves careful analysis of a real estate project that segregates costs for depreciation purposes as personal property, land improvements or building. A cost segregation study increases cash flow by accelerating depreciation in the early years of the project's life. The tax savings from depreciation, normally received in later years, now come in the early years.

This knowledgeable, experienced team of cost segregation consultants and engineers will effectively identify and segregate your company's assets, providing you with significant savings.
