Real Estate Cost Segregation
What is Cost Segregation?
A cost segregation study is a strategic federal income tax tool that enhances near-term cash flow by accelerating depreciation deductions and deferring taxes. By identifying and reclassifying components of a building, cost segregation allows property owners to maximize tax savings in the early years of ownership.
Buildings depreciate over time, losing value due to wear and tear. However, a building is not just a single entity; it consists of various subcomponents (such as lighting fixtures, heating and air conditioning systems, and other elements) that also depreciate over time. Unlike the entire building, which is depreciated over a standard lifespan of either 27.5 years for residential properties or 39 years for commercial properties, these subcomponents have shorter depreciation lifespans of 5, 7, or 15 years. This allows for larger depreciation deductions, especially in the initial years of ownership.
With a cost segregation analysis, you can accelerate depreciation on these components, potentially writing off a significant portion of your building’s original purchase price in the first year. While the 100% bonus depreciation provision has sunset, bonus depreciation is still available at reduced percentages through 2027 (80% in 2023, 60% in 2024, 40% in 2025, 20% in 2026, and 0% in 2027). This powerful tax strategy can significantly improve cash flow and provide a competitive edge in managing real estate investments.
