Ask for case studies, metrics, or before-and-after results.

If a cost segregation study was performed, the accelerated depreciation may further reduce the property’s basis, potentially increasing taxable capital gains when sold.Depreciation recapture will occur when you sell the personal residence, so it’s essential to keep detailed records of all depreciation claimed while the property was used as a rental to ensure accurate tax reporting at that time.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

And the study

Nope......i heard of it on a podcast though.i actually have studied banking and economics for the last year and a half.

@Kerry Baird Love hearing about others taking advantage of cost segregation studies.

The Reno MSA already has natural topographical land constraints, and there have been studies about land "running out" here in less than 10 years. 

To set the scene: A cost seg study breaks your property into two important categories:1250 "real" property aka the building, foundation and other long life assets.1245 property aka anything that can be accelerated such as 5, 7, or 15 year property like carpets, cabinets, or other site improvements.

In this study, new construction is defined as a habitable structure requiring load-bearing features and MEP utilities (mechanical, electrical & plumbing)Below shows which cities have had the most activity:Question: Do you see activity increasing for the rest of Q1?

Depreciation Strategies: Am I maximizing depreciation deductions, and should I consider a cost segregation study to accelerate depreciation?

First time but currently studying the processes as I see this happening many months out.
