If you are new to real estate find out about cost segregation.
For anyone new in Real Estate, cost segregation is something to look into.
What is cost segregation?
A cost segregation study allows building owners to accelerate depreciation deductions that are, typically, taken over an extended period – 27.5 or 39-years – into a much shorter span – 5, 7 or 15-years.
Cost segregation studies don’t create extra deductions over the life of a property. They simply accelerate these deductions. Thus, creating a higher net present value, as deductions are claimed today (leading to higher cash flow today) as opposed to in the future.
Don't assume your CPA will tell you about it as many don't know about it or don't have engineers who can perform the site visit.
