The Partner Network

Add cost segregation to your firm. Earn on every study.

Create a free Partner Network account, bring your clients, and order studies at our standard price. Sign up for referral fees and we pay you 2.5% on your first 2 paid referrals each year, then 5% on the rest. Or upgrade to a Partner subscription for 20% to 40% off every study, based on your yearly volume. Keep it as margin on a white-label study, or pass it to your client. You keep the client either way.

Two ways to partner

Pick the way you want to work and earn.

A Partner subscription opens two doors. Refer a client and the rate comes off what they pay, or buy the study and hand your client a report under your own name. Use one, use both. You decide for each client.

Mode 1

Partnered

You refer. They pay less. You keep the return.

Send your client to us. They order the study and pay us directly, at your partner rate: 20% to 40% off the standard fee, rising with your annual volume. The saving is theirs, and you are the one who brought it. We handle the study. You keep the relationship and the return.

  • Your client works with us
  • Your rate comes off their price: they pay 20% to 40% less
  • No fee split, no awkward billing in the middle
Mode 2

White Label

Your brand. Your client. Start to finish.

Buy the study at your partner rate, 20% to 40% off the standard fee by your annual volume, and hand your client a report under your own name and logo. We build the full study behind the scenes. Your client never comes to us. You own the whole relationship.

  • Your logo and letterhead on the report
  • 20% to 40% off the standard fee, you set what the client pays
  • Your client deals only with you
  • You represent them at audit; we supply the documentation behind you

Both modes unlock with a Partner subscription. The free account lets you bring clients and order at standard price first. See what the subscription unlocks.

The free account

Start free. No join fee.

Anyone can join the Partner Network free. Bring your clients, order studies at our standard price, and manage every study in one place. The free plan does not include the partner rate. That is the upgrade below.

Bring all your clients

Add your clients and order cost segregation studies for them. Manage every study in one place.

Standard pricing, no join fee

Order studies at our standard price, the same price anyone pays. The free plan has no partner rate yet, and no join fee either.

Keep the client, earn a fee

Your client pays us directly, and you keep the relationship and the return. Sign up for referral fees and we pay you 2.5% on your first 2 paid referrals each year, then 5% on the rest. Ask us to sign you up.

How it works

Three steps to start earning.

  1. Create your free account

    Set up your Partner Network account in about a minute. It is free, with no join fee. Log in right away.

  2. Bring your clients

    Add your clients and order studies at our standard price. Everything lives in one place from day one.

  3. Request the subscription to start earning

    Ask for the Partner subscription from your workspace. Our team sets up your firm's billing, and your 20% to 40% partner rate applies to every study, however you choose to work with your clients below.

The Partner subscription

Upgrade to up to 40% off, your way.

A Partner subscription turns cost segregation into a line your firm controls. Take 20% to 40% off every study: buy at that rate and white-label the report under your own name, setting what your client pays, or send the saving straight through to a client who pays us directly. Run it all from the partner portal. Your rate rises with how many studies you do each year. Here is everything it unlocks.

  • 20% Starting rate Automatic the day your membership starts.
  • 30% Step up Once you do 100 properties in a year.
  • 40% Top rate At 1,000 properties in a year.

Your rate is set by how many studies your firm does in a calendar year, counted cumulatively. Moving up is never retroactive, and once you earn a tier you keep it through the following year. Miss it and you step down one tier, not back to the start. It works for both ways to partner: take it off your own cost on a white-label study, or off what your client pays us on a Partnered one.

What that is in dollars. A residential Expert Reviewed study starts at $2,500. At the starting 20% rate that is $500 off, so a Partnered client pays $2,000 instead of $2,500, and on a white-label study you buy at $2,000 and set what your client pays. At the 40% top rate the same study is $1,000 off. Turnaround does not change: a partner study runs on the same timeline as any other study in its tier.

20% to 40% off every study

A partner rate on every study your firm brings, starting at 20% and climbing to 30% at 100 properties a year and 40% at 1,000. Take it off your own cost on a white-label study and set what the client pays, or pass it to your client on a Partnered one.

Your brand on the cover, if you go White Label

Choose White Label and put your logo and letterhead on the report. We build the full study behind the scenes. Your clients see your name, not ours.

The partner portal

A full workspace for your studies, clients, and reports. Track every order from start to finish.

Client and study tracking

See every client and every study at a glance. Know what is ordered, what is in review, and what is ready.

Filing tools

Each study ships with the Form 3115 catch-up package and filing attachments.

Monthly

$199 per month

Cancel anytime. Your plan runs to the end of the month you are in.

  • A 20% to 40% partner rate on every study your firm brings
  • Choose Partnered or White Label for how you work with clients
  • The full partner portal + client and study tracking
  • The Form 3115 catch-up package with every study
Start free, then request this plan

Both plans unlock the same thing: 20% to 40% off every study, your choice of Partnered or White Label, the portal, and the Form 3115 filing tools. The yearly plan just saves you two months. There is no card checkout on this page: create your free account, request the subscription from your workspace, and our team sets up your firm's billing. Your subscription runs under our Partner Network Agreement, which you can read before you sign. Questions first? Talk to us.

Why client-pays-direct matters

Your independence stays clean.

In Partnered mode, we never split fees with you. Your client pays us directly and your partner rate comes off what they pay, so no money moves between us and you at all. That keeps a clear line between your return work and our study work, so there is no fee-conflict question on the file. You stay in control of the return. We hand you clean, defensible work to attach to it. A referral fee on the free plan works differently: we pay you, so your professional rules may ask you to tell your client in writing.

Audit representation follows the same line. On a Partnered study your client is our client: Joel Salas, our Director of Tax, can go on record for them under a Form 2848 if they add Full Audit Defense. On a white-label study they are your client and not ours, so you represent them at audit under your own Form 2848, and we supply the study's documentation and technical support behind you. Full Audit Defense is not sold on white-label studies.

Partner questions

Who does what, exactly.

The answers below are how the product actually works, not how it is usually described. If something here is not what you need, tell us.

Who starts the study, me or my client?
Either. Your client can start their own from the link you send them, or you can start it for them with Start a study in your partner portal and fill in what you already know about the property. Whoever starts it, the study lands in your portal.
Who talks to my client?
It depends on the mode. On a Partnered study your client orders from us and pays us, so we answer their questions about the study while you keep the return. On a White Label study you do, start to finish: we send your client nothing at all, not even the invite to see the report. You hand them everything.
Who does the intake on a referred or white-labeled study?
We do, in both modes. The study wizard collects the property facts, the photos and the documents. On an Expert Reviewed study, a professional on our team checks what comes in. On a white-label study you can fill the wizard in yourself on your client's behalf if you would rather they never see it.
Who stands behind the study?
My Cost Segregation LLC. We build every study and we are the contracting party on the engagement letter, in both modes. White label puts your brand on the cover; it does not move the work or the responsibility for it to you.
Who represents my client if the IRS asks about it?
On a Partnered study your client is our client: Joel Salas, our Director of Tax, can go on record for them under a Form 2848 if they add Full Audit Defense. On a White Label study they are your client and not ours, so you represent them under your own Form 2848 and we supply the study's documentation and technical support behind you. Full Audit Defense is not sold on white-label studies.
Do I need the subscription to bring clients?
No. A free Partner account lets you add clients, order studies at our standard price and run everything from one place. Sign up for referral fees and we pay you 2.5% on your first 2 paid referrals each year, then 5% on the rest. To sign up, ask us. We send you our Partner Network Agreement to sign. We pay once we have your signed W-9. The subscription is what unlocks the 20% to 40% partner rate.
How do I cancel?
Cancel anytime. Your plan runs to the end of the month you are in. On the yearly plan: cancel anytime. Your plan stays active until the year ends. Yearly plans are not refunded. There is no cancellation fee either way.
