Owning a commercial property comes with significant tax opportunities—if you know how to leverage them. At Commercial Partners of Texas, we specialize in cost segregation studies that unlock accelerated depreciation, helping you save thousands of dollars in taxes each year.
What is Cost Segregation?
Cost segregation is a strategic tax planning tool that separates your commercial property into components that can be depreciated over shorter periods. While standard depreciation on commercial property typically spans 39 years, cost segregation allows certain assets—like fixtures, flooring, lighting, and landscaping—to be depreciated over 5, 7, or 15 years.
This accelerated depreciation reduces your taxable income and increases cash flow, letting you reinvest in your property or business sooner.
Benefits of Accelerated Depreciation for Commercial Properties
Significant Tax Savings: Lower taxable income immediately with accelerated depreciation.
Improved Cash Flow: Keep more money in your business to grow or reinvest.
IRS-Compliant: Studies are conducted with strict adherence to IRS guidelines.
Works for New and Existing Properties: Applies to purchases, renovations, or expansions.
