Cost segregation studies used to be for the rich and shameless with some reports being several thousands of dollars. While those still exist and are even needed at times, you can see that is not the case with CostSegEZ. Sure, there are other do-it-yourself costseg providers, but WCG CPAs & Advisors has worked with CostSegEZ multiple times, and we like their approach and customer support. Most real estate investors in the single-family home or small apartment building space only need a simple report.

Keep in mind that CostSegEZ and their competitors are considered do-it-yourself cost segregation reports. You are the doing the site visit. You are collecting data. You are typing that data into a model. As such, you can mess it up badly. Prior deprecation already taken and improvements seem to be the frequent things that trip people up. So, in any garbage in garbage out scenario (think QuickBooks), you might need guidance on the inputs.

Cost segregation is a wonderful tool and doesn’t cost a bunch of money to implement. A win-win. All the flavor with no calories. Wait! There’s more… should you benefit from a cost segregation study and the related big tax deduction, then perhaps pairing this with a Roth conversion on your traditional IRA makes sense as well.
