At Cost Segregation Services, Inc., we believe a tax professional is crucial in order for the owner of a commercial building to maximize the benefits of a cost segregation study. Although we have tax experts on staff and under contract, we do not offer accounting services. Unlike most of our competitors, we decided from the beginning to eliminate any possibility of a conflict of interest with you and your client.As the leading engineering firm working exclusively with cost segregation projects, we provide you with the experience, quality and protection that comes from working with dedicated and knowledgeable professionals.
Not only do you get the arms-length relationship preferred by the IRS, you also get a team that will back you up when it counts. In addition to identifying everything in a building that can legitimately be accelerated, our studies are constructed in a way that addresses all of the points used by the IRS to define a quality study. They are also presented in a format specifically designed to reduce the chances of an audit.
Of the thousands of engineered cost segregation studies completed by Cost Segregation Services since the landmark 1997 case HCA vs. Commission, not one has been successfully challenged by the IRS. In the unlikely event of an audit, we will provide one of our engineers, at our expense, to attend the audit and defend any challenged point.
