Cost Segregation Built Around Your Full Tax Strategy
Improve cash flow, reduce current tax liability, and support long-term planning.
​
At Farahani CPA, cost segregation is handled as part of a complete tax strategy, not a one-off report. We help real estate owners accelerate depreciation while making sure the results are properly applied, compliant, and aligned with your broader financial goals.
What Is Cost Segregation?
Cost segregation is a tax planning strategy that allows real estate owners to reclassify certain property components into shorter depreciation periods, creating larger deductions earlier in the life of the property. This can reduce taxable income, improve cash flow, and support more effective long-term tax planning.
Our Full-Service Cost Segregation Approach
Integrated Tax Strategy
We don’t stop at delivering a study. Cost segregation is built into your overall tax planning so the benefits work in coordination with your returns, projections, and long-term objectives.​​​​​​​​​
Proven Experience Across Property Types
With over 300 cost segregation studies completed, we bring deep experience across a wide range of property classes, ensuring accurate classifications and defensible results.
Upfront Feasibility & Tax Modeling
Before any study begins, we run detailed tax estimates and feasibility analysis. This confirms the strategy will be applicable and materially beneficial, helping you avoid unnecessary or low-impact studies.​
Proper Tax Return Integration
We’ve prepared 500+ tax returns that include cost segregation. This means your study is implemented correctly, reported accurately, and supported with documentation that stands up to review.
Real-World Investor Perspective
As active real estate investors, we understand the economics behind property ownership. Our recommendations consider cash flow timing, investment goals, and the practical impact accelerated depreciation has on your portfolio.
Who Can Benefit from Cost Segregation?
Cost segregation may be beneficial if you:
-
Own or have recently purchased commercial or residential rental property
-
Completed new construction or major renovations
-
Want to reduce current tax liability and improve near-term cash flow
-
Plan to hold property long term or reinvest savings into new opportunities
Every situation is different, which is why we start with analysis instead of assumptions.
