Cost Segregation Basics
Description
In this lively episode of Nailed It: The Construction and Real Estate Finances Podcast, hosts Jeremy Bottlinger and Ian Grove dive into cost segregation, the tax-saving superhero for real estate investors. They break down how cost seg studies accelerate depreciation, turning 27.5- or 39-year schedules into 5-, 7-, or 15-year chunks, turbocharged by bonus depreciation (100% in 2017-2022, now 40% in 2025). With their signature humor, they warn against cheap, shoddy cost segs and urge listeners to pick savvy providers—think contractors, not your CPA—to maximize deductions. Don't blow your savings on a Dodge Viper, though! Stay tuned for more tax hacks.
