Which cost segregation study approach is required by the IRS?

Additionally, the study must be completed by “qualified individuals” and “professional firms” that are competent in construction, design, auditing and estimation procedures for building construction.So while a specific methodology isn’t required by the IRS, taxpayers must ensure that their depreciation deductions and classifications of property are substantiated with supporting evidence.

However, you can defer taxes under §1033 involuntary conversion if you elect to reinvest the proceeds into a similar rental property within two years (three years if the government condemns the property or threatens to do so, and four years for a principal residence in a federally declared disaster area).To reduce taxable gain, consider:Electing §1033 treatment and reinvesting the full $300K into a new rental property to defer taxes completely.Partial reinvestment, where only the portion not reinvested is taxable.Properly documenting all replacement costs and property details to ensure IRS compliance.Using cost segregation on the new property to accelerate depreciation and offset future taxable income.Since the §1033 election must be made, consult a tax professional to ensure compliance and maximize deferral benefits.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.
