"Completed a Rapid Report for our recently purchased rental property. Working with R.E. Cost Seg was a great experience.

The Rapid Report process was straightforward and easy to complete for a 2-1 rental. The team was professional, responsive, and excellent at communication throughout. Documentation provided went straight to my tax professional - no questions, not clarifications required. Highly recommend them."

Frequently Asked Questions

A cost segregation calculator estimates how much depreciation could potentially be accelerated if a cost segregation study reclassifies parts of your property into shorter depreciation lives. This page shows a baseline (No Study) plus a range (Conservative and Optimistic) for planning.

A calculator provides a planning estimate based on the inputs you provide. A property-specific proposal and, when appropriate, an engineered cost segregation study will validate assumptions using documentation and property details.

Generally, it's when the property is ready and available for rent or business use, not always the closing date. Timing impacts which tax year depreciation begins.

Land isn't depreciable. Including land value helps estimate building and improvement basis more accurately.

Include capital improvements, such as remodels, additions, and major upgrades, because they can materially change depreciation outcomes. Routine repairs and maintenance are typically treated differently.

No Study is baseline depreciation without cost segregation reallocation. Conservative and Optimistic show a planning range for potential reallocation if a cost segregation study identifies more short-life property.
