TAX INCENTIVES FOR RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE

A Residential Cost Segregation Study is a strategic tax planning service that enables residential property owners to accelerate depreciation and significantly enhance cash flow. While this strategy was once reserved for large commercial properties, Taxster’s specialized approach makes it accessible and cost-effective for owners of houses, condos, townhomes, and multi-family buildings.

Through a detailed analysis, we break down the components of your property—such as driveways, tile work, finished basements, and swimming pools—into shorter-lived asset classes that qualify for faster depreciation. This IRS-approved method can lead to substantial, upfront tax savings by unlocking hidden value in your property’s structure and improvements.

Why haven't I done this before?

  • Cost Segregation studies are complex and should be done by an accountant

  • Some accountants don’t fully understand what it is or have misconceptions about these studies

  • The tax code is thousands of pages and changes constantly

  • Traditional Cost Segregation services are too expensive for most residential properties
