@Bill B.Bill, I appreciate the insight.

Although the study may increase the gain, the gain may be taxed at a much lower rate making it a beneficial investment.If a property is purchased with the intention to flip or own for a short period of time (less than 3 years), a cost segregation study may not be significant.Overall, as long as you intend to hold the investment property for greater than a year, the benefits of a cost segregation study should be considered.

I just want to hear some insight from people who’ve actually done it.

Very insightful.

Did the proceeds from the sale count as short term or long term capital gains?

Hi John, would you be interested in the Lake Lanier areas in GA in Hall or Forsyth counties?  

Be sure to check out the free tools BP provides to help analyze deals you may have and also market insights.

With an SDIRA, you can use tax-advantaged funds to purchase property, and any income or gains from the investment grow tax-deferred (or tax-free with a Roth SDIRA).

There are other players in the game to compare with like Kenny Bedwell at STR Insights or Bill Faeth's coaching.

Do this enough I guarantee you will get great info, insight, and just maybe an old timer ready to retire out who's open to seeing what they can do to make a deal work.
