Cost Segregation Strategies for Accelerated Depreciation
The Valuation Group provides cost segregation studies for real estate owners, investors, businesses, CPAs, tax advisors, and advisory teams that need documented analysis of building components, site improvements, and shorter-life property for depreciation purposes.
Our work supports acquired properties, constructed properties, renovated buildings, leasehold improvements, tenant build-outs, medical and dental facilities, restaurants, retail properties, office buildings, industrial properties, mixed-use properties, and other commercial real estate assets.
Why The Valuation Group
Cost segregation is not simply a spreadsheet exercise. The analysis must connect the physical property, available cost records, building systems, site improvements, and asset classifications to a report and schedules that the taxpayer's professional team can review and use.
Our work combines valuation judgment, financial analysis, property-component review, and documentation discipline so depreciation-related allocations can be identified, supported, and explained.
