Full Engineered Cost Segregation Study

The gold-standard study done the way the IRS Audit Technique Guide expects: engineering-based, asset-by-asset, documented. A virtual or on-site inspection, component identification down to fixtures and specialty systems, and a fixed-asset schedule your CPA can load the day it arrives.

Why engineered instead of a questionnaire study?
Questionnaire studies estimate from averages; engineered studies measure your actual building — its finishes, systems, and site work. The IRS audit framework explicitly favors engineering-based work, and the reclassification rates on real buildings routinely beat generic tables.
Do I need an on-site visit?
Most residential and small commercial properties are fully handled by a high-res virtual walkthrough with a guided checklist. Larger or complex commercial assets get on-site inspection included in the quote when engineering accuracy requires it.
What bonus depreciation will apply?
If you signed your purchase contract after January 19, 2025, qualifying reclassified components take 100% bonus (now permanent under OBBBA, per IRS Notice 2026-11). Earlier binding contracts follow the legacy phase-down. We model both and show you the exact figures before you order.
