Cost Segregation Expertise When You Need It Most

What is Cost Segregation?

Cost Segregation is an engineering based analysis in which building components and systems are identified and properly reclassified as personal property.  This reclassification of assets will generally result in shorter class lives or recovery periods which translate to accelerated depreciation and tax deductions that will provide our clients with increased cash flow and tax burden relief. 

  

Why should you use "NTTRG"?

A Cost Segregation study is only as good as its ability to withstand the most intensive IRS scrutiny.   We have experience that includes working through IRS audits with fortune 500 companies involving millions of dollars in assets.  We are thorough and methodical in our approach.  We use proprietary software that we co-developed and designed specifically for the Cost Segregation industry.

Is Cost Segregation a red flag for an audit?

No, in fact, the IRS actually expect taxpayers to have Cost Segregation studies performed.  The expectations are that taxpayers will use realized savings to expand  and potentially hire new employees.  Thus, stimulating the economy.  Cost Segregation guidelines are posted on the IRS website.
