Cost Segregation Studies

MS Consultants, LLC

With MS Consultants as an integral part of The Bonadio Group, we have a way to fast forward our clients’ returns on property investments.

A cost segregation study (CSS) is a tool for accelerating the return on capital from a real property investment, based upon a total review of all costs associated with the acquisition or construction of a building. The purpose of this study is to classify these costs as either real or personal property, with the personal property additions being depreciated on an accelerated basis.

MS Consultants are professionals with the requisite knowledge of the tax laws and IRS guidelines to conduct your cost segregation study. With expertise in construction and project design from both an engineering and tax perspective, they have been uncovering hidden tax savings for businesses nationwide since 1996.

MS Consultants’ specialists can assist you in realizing significant depreciation deductions from:

  • New buildings and facilities currently under construction
  • Existing buildings undergoing renovations, remodeling, restoration or expansion
  • Buildings placed in service as far back as 1987
  • Leasehold improvements to offices and facilities
  • Acquisitions of or investments in real estate properties
  • Previously overlooked building costs that may be segregated for accelerated depreciation
