Study Details – Medical Facility Purchase: Engineered Tax Services performed a cost segregation engineering review of building components on a one-story, 15,838 square foot medical office building. The cost segregation benefit included a reclassification of 27.5-year depreciation class life assets into 5 and 15 year class lives, resulting in a combined benefit of $1,622,280 on the purchase.
These “next generation” benefits clearly demonstrate why cost segregation has become a powerful tax tool for real estate clients as a result of the final tangible property regulations (T-Regs).
