It is the process of identifying property components that are considered "personal property" or "land improvements" under the federal tax code. It identifies and reclassifies personal property assets to shorten the depreciation time for taxation purposes, which reduces current income tax obligations. The US Treasury Department States:
“Cost segregation is a lucrative tax strategy that should be used in…every major purchase of commercial real estate.”
Wall Street Journal – June 2003

• 2002 –IRS consents to changes in the method of
depreciation via Form 3115, filed in the year the change is
elected. Taxpayers permitted to catch up on all deductions
from previous years. No amended returns required.
– This “catch-up” is via IRS §481(a) and the adjustment is granted
“automatic consent” by IRS Chief Counsel.
• 2004 – IRS releases Cost Segregation Audit Technique Guide
(CSATG).
• 2006 – The IRS starts to crack down on non-engineering
based study-providers and audits them more frequently.
• 2011 – Economic Stimulus Plan – 100% Bonus Depreciation
• 2014 – Bonus Depreciation expired, §179 reverts to $25,000
• The wide gap in MACRS recovery
periods provides a strong incentive for
taxpayers to allocate or reallocate
costs of long-life property to short-life
property, wherever possible.

Chapter-2---Legal-Framework#6
The IRS Chief Counsel wrote a memo saying, ". . . Cost Segregation, for it to be properly applied, had to involve those with competencies in architecture, engineering or construction and/or construction techniques, in order for personal property assets to be accurately identified and segregated.”
This means CPAs are NOT qualified to perform cost segregation on their own.
• Construction drawings
• Construction invoices
• AIA G702 & G703
– Master & itemized sub-contractor’s invoices
• Closing documents or lease agreement
• Appraisal (if any)
• Current Fixed Asset Schedule
• At a minimum we need the FAS
– A CSS is more expensive with no documentation
• Cost segregation can be performed at any stage of ownership.
– Design phase
– Pre-construction
– Under construction
– Current occupancy back to January 1, 1987
• The best time is prior to construction because our recommendations will increase the short-life asset bases.
• IRS Form 3115, Application for Change in Accounting Method
– Unless asset has not been placed in service then normal filing procedures apply
• Segregation Holding files the 3115 with the IRS on the taxpayer’s behalf.
• IRS issues federal income tax credit within 30 days of acceptance
• §§ 167, 168
– Depreciation rules, GDS, ADS, ACRS, MACRS
• §§ 1245, 1250
– Tangible personal property & real property
• Dozens of Revenue Procedures & Rulings
• Dozens of PLRs
• Publication 946
• Multiple AODs
• QLIs (Qualified Leasehold Improvements) will
generally qualify at $75,000+
• QRP (Qualified Restaurant Property) will
generally qualify at $65,000+
• Office condos typically qualify at $150,000
• Free-standing buildings will vary wildly due
to the industry and build-out variances, but
generally $150,000+/- will work.
• Should be an engineering or architectural
firm specializing in cost segregation
• Should employ only PEs (Professional
Engineers) or AIA licensed architects
• Should have CPA or accounting assets to
confer with
• Should be a member of the American
Society of Cost Segregation Professionals
– Sets high standards for the industry
• It can reveal opportunities to reduce real estate tax liabilities and identify certain sales and use tax savings opportunities.
– Personal property assessed at a lower rate
– Some states grant “sales & use tax” deductions
• Maximize tax savings by adjusting the timing of deductions at the proper time.
• Create an audit trail documenting cost and asset classifications.
• Capture retroactive savings with § 481(a).

So How Did I Do On My Predictions From Last Year
• First, I Predicted that there would still be some Foreclosures but they would not exceed 10% of the Market.
• In 2014 Foreclosures represented 10% of all Sales
Grade A
• My Second Prediction was that it would be difficult to sustain the 16% increase in transactions that we experienced in 2013 and for 2014 an increase of 8% might be more realistic.
• In 2014 overall sales were slightly below 2013. We did not experience the 8% increase.
• Grade: C+
• My Third Prediction was that Mortgage Rates would edge up slightly and hover in the 4%-5% range.
• According to Ed Lowther with Wells Fargo this week the 30 year rate was 4.25%
• Grade: A
What I See for 2015
• 2014 did not show the increase in sales that we hoped for However there are some impressive bright spots. – 1. 30% Increase in homes $300,000 - $500,000
– 2. 38% increase in homes over $1,000.000.
– 3. Increase in New Home Construction.
This tells me that we have renewed confidence in Real Estate at the Lake.
For 2015 I See
• Real Estate Sales similar to 2014
• A Slight Decline in Foreclosure Activity
• Continuing New Home Construction
• Interest Rates Still at Historic Lows.
• With Inventory Shrinking, we will start to see some improvements in values.
• Over All, 2015 Will be a Good Year for the Lake of the Ozarks.
