IRS-Compliant Cost Segregation Study Services | O’Connor & Associates

Unlock powerful tax savings and improve cash flow by leveraging expert cost segregation — a strategic approach to accelerate depreciation on property assets. At O’Connor & Associates, we deliver IRS-compliant cost segregation studies tailored for real estate owners, developers, and investors across the United States. A cost segregation study is a detailed engineering and tax analysis of a property’s components, allowing select assets—such as HVAC systems, lighting, fixtures, plumbing, landscaping, and specialized equipment—to be separated from the main building and depreciated over shorter lifespans (5, 7, or 15 years) rather than the standard 27.5 or 39 years. This reallocation accelerates depreciation, generates larger first-year deductions, and drives significant reductions in federal taxable income. Whether acquiring, renovating, or constructing property, our approach helps you capture substantial tax benefits — often in the six- to seven-figure range. Our streamlined study process includes: • Initial Review & Free Estimate: We evaluate your property and provide an estimated tax-savings projection at no charge. • Engineering & Asset Analysis: Licensed engineers and appraisal professionals inspect your property (on-site or via documentation) to identify eligible short-life assets. • Report & Audit-Ready Documentation: Within days, we deliver a complete, IRS-aligned report containing detailed depreciation schedules, narratives, and change-in-accounting support (Form 3115), all built to withstand audit scrutiny. • CPA Collaboration: We coordinate closely with your tax advisor to integrate our findings into your tax filings — no amended returns needed for missed depreciation claims. Because the One Big Beautiful Bill reinstated 100 % bonus depreciation permanently from January 20, 2025 onward, cost segregation remains a timely and potent strategy. Qualifying assets placed in service on or after that date may be fully deducted in the first year—when combined with segregated short-life components. Our cost segregation services benefit a wide range of property types: apartments, offices, retail centers, warehouses, hotels, healthcare facilities, restaurants, and more. We have implemented thousands of successful studies across 45+ states, helping clients save millions in federal tax liability. Choose O’Connor for unmatched expertise, speed, and compliance. We adhere strictly to the IRS Audit Techniques Guide for defensible, audit-quality reporting — and include built-in audit support at no extra cost. Our specialists also respond to client inquiries promptly (average reply < 15 minutes) and require minimal documentation from you. Don’t leave tax savings on the table. Leverage cost segregation to optimize your real estate investments, improve cash flow, and accelerate growth.
