Cost Segregation - Scale?
At what scale does it make sense to start exploring a cost segregation study? Does the cost of the study scale with the size of the investment? Who does these (not looking for specific companies), is it accountants, lawyers, agents, and/or contractors? Seems like an interesting niche...
I had always assumed these were for larger scale commercial investments, but in the recent On The Market episode, Brandon Hall used an example of a $100k property. Not sure if that was for easy numbers or if this is something that can apply to most six-figure investments. In my head it's always been a 7+ figure investment tool...
Thanks in advance!

The beautiful thing about the cost segregation is that the cost seg company will give you a breakdown of what the cost seg study will cost and the likely benefit of the study before you have to pay for it, so it's a win, then play scenario. Like when I did my last one, the study was going to cost $1600 and the benefit of it was $28,000 in tax savings. I don't know about you, but for me personally, I will trade $1600 for $28,000 as many times as you will let me. RE Cost Seg is a fantastic company designed for owners of smaller properties. They are able to do it all virtually, which reduces their costs drastically from what it used to cost to get a specialist out to your house to charge tens of thousands. Highly recommend them!
