Why Cost Segregation?
Cost Segregation: A Common-Sense Strategy for Maximizing Depreciation
At We Do Cost Segregation, we specialize in a powerful tax strategy known as cost segregation—a legal and IRS-approved method that accelerates depreciation, freeing up short-term cash flow and providing working capital for property owners. This strategy helps real estate investors reduce and defer tax liability, putting liquid cash back into their hands sooner.
How Cost Segregation Works
Cost segregation involves analyzing and reclassifying components of a property to shorter depreciation schedules. Under standard IRS rules, real estate assets depreciate over:
27.5 years for residential properties
39 years for commercial properties
These long depreciation periods provide only modest annual tax deductions. However, many property components—such as lighting, HVAC systems, flooring, and landscaping—can be reclassified as personal property or land improvements. These assets can be depreciated on much faster schedules:
5-year (e.g., furniture, fixtures)
7-year (e.g., office equipment)
15-year (e.g., parking lots, sidewalks, landscaping)
By accelerating depreciation, property owners can significantly reduce their taxable income in the early years of ownership, boosting cash flow when it’s needed most.
Why Professional Expertise Matters
While the benefits of cost segregation are substantial, compliance with federal laws and tax codes is critical. Misclassification of assets can lead to penalties or disallowed deductions. That’s why it’s essential to work with a qualified professional like We Do Cost Segregation.
Our team of experienced engineers and tax experts follows IRS guidelines meticulously, ensuring every asset is properly analyzed and reclassified. We provide audit-ready reports and offer full audit support at no additional cost, giving you peace of mind while maximizing your tax savings.

Frequently asked question
New to Cost Segregation Studies?
Whether you just bought your first property or are a seasoned investor, we work with individuals and funds of all sizes across the country.
I bought and placed a property in service in 2023. Can I still do a cost segregation study in 2024?
Yes, you can. Cost segregation studies can be conducted retroactively for properties placed in service in previous years. This allows you to claim missed depreciation and potentially amend prior tax returns to maximize savings.
I’m a high W-2 earner. Can cost segregation offset my W-2 income taxes?
Yes, in many cases. By leveraging cost segregation, you can generate depreciation deductions that may offset your W-2 income when combined with other tax strategies. Consult with your tax advisor to explore the full benefits.
I’m planning to sell my property soon. Does cost segregation still make sense?
It depends on your specific situation. Even with a short ownership period, cost segregation can provide significant tax savings. However, potential recapture taxes should be considered. Our team can help you evaluate the benefits based on your timeline.
Can I perform cost segregation on properties I purchased in prior years?
Absolutely. Cost segregation can often be applied to properties acquired in previous years, with the ability to “catch up” on missed depreciation through a change in accounting method. There’s no need to amend past tax returns.
When is the best time to get a cost segregation study?
The ideal time is soon after purchasing or placing the property in service. However, you can still benefit at any point during your ownership. The sooner you act, the quicker you’ll see the tax benefits.
What types of properties are eligible for cost segregation?
Most income-producing and investment properties qualify, including:
Short-term rentals
Apartment complexes
WarehousesHotels & motels
Restaurants
Shopping centers
Nursing homes
Gas stations
Office buildings
Industrial facilities
If you’re unsure, contact us for a free assessment.
What does a cost segregation study cost?
The cost depends on the complexity, size, and type of your property. We offer competitive pricing with clear upfront quotes. Typically, the tax savings far outweigh the cost of the study, resulting in a strong return on investment.
What documents do I need for a cost segregation study?
Common documents include the purchase agreement, closing statement, and any available property appraisals or construction records. Don’t have everything? No problem—our team can often work with limited documentation.
How long does the cost segregation process take?
Depending on the property size and service level, a study can take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks. Our Rapid Report service offers quicker turnaround times for simpler properties.
Will cost segregation trigger an IRS audit?
Cost segregation is an IRS-recognized strategy, and when done correctly, it complies fully with tax regulations. Our reports are prepared using IRS guidelines to minimize audit risk, and we stand by our work to ensure accuracy.
