I've heard of Cost Segregation before to save a TON on taxes but dismissed it because I thought it was only something for big commercial property owners – definitely not for smaller properties or newbies.
Boy, was I wrong. After speaking with Heidi Henderson with Engineered Tax Services (ETS) she set the record straight:
If you own real estate valued at least $500,000 – you could save HUGE on your taxes this year.
It was such an eye-opener for me that I thought I'd make it available to you.
Here's what we cover in this episode:
- What is Cost Segregation and what are its benefits?
- What kind of real estate is Cost Segregation most suited for? What's the minimum size? What is it less suited for?
- How a company like ETS works with your CPA.
- What's involved in a Cost Segregation Analysis and what is actually produced?
- Aside from the tax benefits, there are other benefits down the road. What are they?
- Heidi walks us through a case study analysis for a small apartment building. If it works for a small building like this, it'll work for larger stuff, too!
- Here is a link to the full benefits analysis report from the show.
Heidi is making a free benefits analysis available to all of you. I went through the process myself. Not only was it easy and free, I was SHOCKED at the savings, even for a small building that we used as an example.

Hi Michael, I’m not sure if it is me but I am unable to play or download the podcast. I’m very interested in how I can save money on my taxes?
Thanks!
Dustin – thanks for pointing out the error. I just fixed it and it works here on the web page but it looks like it will take a little while longer to propagate to iTunes etc. Thanks very much!
Michael, I am totally guilty of multi-tasking during your webinar, but it’s to write a response to you. That’s okay, right? Anyway, probably a dumb question, but does cost segregation contribute to increase fair market value of the property for resale or refinance in the future? Thanks, Keith.
