Cost Segregation Studies Overview Cost Segregation is an IRS-approved process of identifying personal property assets that often get buried or lumped together within the Real Property asset category. By undergoing a cost segregation study, these personal property assets are reclassified to the shortest possible depreciable life to enable the real estate owner to maximize his or her tax depreciation situation, thereby reducing the current income tax obligations. The tax savings generates cash flow that owners can use to reinvest in the business, purchase more property, apply to their principle payment or spend on themselves. Cost Segregation Services, Inc. (CSSI), an independent third party, performs an engineered cost segregation study on your commercial property. Through the study CSSI engineers identify and reclassify segments of your real property into personal property. This allows you to accelerate the depreciation of your building and/or renovation into five-, seven- and 15- year categories rather than the conventional 27.5- and 39.5-year schedules. Five- and seven-year items include decorative building elements, electrical for dedicated computer equipment, and carpet. Fifteen-year items include site utilities, landscaping and paving. What? How?
