ADVICE

Use Cost Segregation And Bonus Depreciation

  • Do run a cost segregation study to reclassify property components into 5, 7, or 15-year assets for accelerated depreciation.
  • Use bonus depreciation where eligible to compress those deductions into the current year and reduce taxable income.
ADVICE

Put Property Into Service Before Rehab

  • Do consider putting a rehabbed property into service before completing major rehab work to enable multiple cost seg studies.
  • Use a partial asset approach to double up depreciation benefits across pre- and post-rehab periods.
ADVICE

Verify Bonus Depreciation Eligibility

  • Check acquisition dates before applying bonus depreciation because the 100% bonus changes by when you bought the property.
  • Consult a cost segregation expert to determine applicable percentages and properly claim the deduction.
