Understanding Cost Segregation and Tax Deductions in Real Estate Investing

Cost segregation is a tax-saving strategy that allows property owners to accelerate depreciation deductions using an advanced form of depreciation for business or investment properties. By segregating property components into different categories with varying depreciation schedules, owners can front-load deductions, potentially deducting the equivalent of their down payment. This tax strategy can be profound, with up to 25% of the property value accelerated for depreciation in the early years of ownership.
