Investment Property Tax Incentives
Don’t do another real estate transaction without talking to the experts at CORE first.
Engineered Cost Segregation
A cost segregation study reclassifies 39-year (commercial) and 27.5-year (residential) property into 5-year personal property and 15-year land improvements. Electrical, plumbing, mechanical systems, site improvements, and hundreds of other components. Translating into immediate cash flow. Under the passing of the One Big Beautiful Bill, our clients can now enjoy 100% bonus depreciation and take the entire deduction in year one, significantly increasing your first-year tax savings. If you don’t need it all, no problem. You can now spread it out up to 20 years. This is one of the best tax strategies for creating TIME VALUE OF MONEY.
- Typical value
- $50K to $2M+ first-year savings
- Best fit
- Commercial real estate owners with $500K+ depreciable basis
