# Cost Seg Smart

> Automated cost segregation studies for real estate investors. IRS-defensible reports delivered in under an hour, starting at $795.

## What We Do

Cost Seg Smart provides engineering-based cost segregation studies that help real estate investors accelerate depreciation deductions. Our automated platform replaces the traditional 4-8 week, $5,000-$15,000 process with reports delivered in under an hour at a fraction of the cost.

A cost segregation study reclassifies building components from the standard 27.5-year (residential) or 39-year (commercial) depreciation schedule into shorter 5-year, 7-year, and 15-year asset classes. With 100% bonus depreciation permanently restored under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (2025+), investors can deduct these reclassified amounts entirely in Year 1.

## Property Types

- **Residential**: Single-family rentals, short-term rentals (Airbnb/VRBO), condos, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes
