What is Cost Segregation?
An IRS-de?ned approach for depreciating
commercial properties thereby reducing your
federal incomes taxes. Cost Segregation reduces
and defers state and federal income taxes. It
reduces income taxes by converting ordinary
income to capital gains and defers income taxes
by increasing depreciation in the early years of
ownership. It is a technical process where
short-life items are separated from long life
items. Cost Segregation typically doubles or
triples depreciation during the ?rst ?ve years
of ownership.

Is Cost Segregation Right For You?
Cost segregation makes sense if you have
substantial taxable income and can use the
additional depreciation to reduce income taxes.
For a person with no income, the additional
depreciation simply provides a net loss carry
forward (indefinite now) but no immediate
benefit.
