Tax reduction is only one of the benefits of cost segregation. Many property owners and tax preparers cost segregation believe simply deferring payment of taxes. While I do recognize generates an interest free loan from the government, they do not understand that also provides tax breaks in most cases.

For most real estate owners (companies are the exception) income is characterized as either ordinary income or capital gains income. It is intuitive, but the cost segregation changes the character of revenue from income income provides capital gains tax reductions of up to 20%. This is due to the additional depreciation is a deduction that reduces tax revenue. When the property is sold, revenues are recognized as capital gains. Having more tax deductions to reduce tax increases.

Since a part of the cost basis is allocated to short-life improvements, some owners of tax preparers and expressing concern that the depreciation will be recovered when property is sold (at a tax rate of 25-35%).

When a property is sold, the owner and tax preparer typically collectively review the selling price and the amortization schedule to allocate the sales price between land, property, short-lived, long-lived assets, and profit. After reviewing the condition of the property short-lived, usually determine the value is similar to the depreciation base (base volume). Therefore, the depreciation not recovered since no gain on the sale.

This is reasonable and appropriate, because the short life of the property is depreciating faster than the building structure. Short-owned of life includes items such as carpets, vinyl tiles, paving and striping parking. Those facts are physically depreciation use and time (if outdoors).

The capital gains rate (maximum 15%) is less than half the regular rate of income tax (maximum 35%). By converting the nature of revenue income to capital gains income, cost segregation tax cuts identified by reducing the tax rate reduced by over 50% (for income covered by the segregation of costs). In addition, cost segregation defers the payment of taxes from the year it is earned until the property is sold.
