Representative results modeled on typical cost segregation outcomes; individual results vary. These are examples, not specific clients, and carry no testimonial or guarantee. Each figure is built from the same method a real study uses: building basis after land, the share of that basis that typically qualifies for 5, 7, or 15-year life, and a year-1 write-off taken in full under 100% bonus depreciation. The savings estimate uses a reasonable tax rate. Your own result depends on your facts, including filing status, tax rate, and the passive activity rules. Talk to your tax advisor before you file.
