Takeaways
Cost segregation accelerates depreciation benefits and allows investors to frontload their deductions.
Depreciation recapture and bonus depreciation are important considerations in cost segregation.
The decision to do a cost segregation study should be based on factors such as hold term, property size, and tax liability.
The quality of the cost segregation study and the expertise of the provider are crucial.
