Learning Objectives

  • Outline cost segregation software tools, including AI-assisted workflows and the KBKG Partial Disposition Calculator.
  • Determine how to generate cost segregation reports efficiently for eligible residential and commercial properties.
  • Identify tax savings opportunities from accelerated depreciation, bonus depreciation, and partial disposition deductions.
  • Recognize tax planning considerations involving OBBBA bonus depreciation, Section 481(a) adjustments, structural component retirements, and partial disposition rules.

Course Overview

Cost segregation is a valuable tax planning strategy that helps property owners accelerate depreciation deductions by properly classifying building components into shorter recovery periods. It can also support partial disposition deductions when components of a building are replaced or retired, helping taxpayers better align depreciation with the actual use and lifecycle of property assets.

This course explores how enhanced tools available through CostSegregation.com can help tax professionals prepare cost segregation reports for a broader range of residential and commercial properties without relying on a third-party engineer for every engagement. Participants will review the platform’s AI-assisted features, expanded property coverage, improved reporting capabilities, and the KBKG Partial Disposition Calculator for determining the basis of removed building components.

Major Topic:

  • Cost segregation fundamentals and tax benefits
  • AI-assisted CostSegregation.com workflows
  • Residential and commercial property reporting
  • Bonus depreciation and OBBBA considerations
  • Section 481(a) adjustments and Form 3115
  • Partial dispositions and structural component retirements

The course also examines key tax considerations and planning opportunities associated with cost segregation, including bonus depreciation, Section 481(a) adjustments, retirement of structural components, and partial disposition rules. Participants will gain practical insight into using these tools to identify potential tax savings, support client planning, and improve the efficiency of cost segregation engagements.
