What is Cost Segregation? Picture of IRS Cost Segregation LogoCSI is a best of breed specialty real estate services firm. Our primary focus is providing cost segregation studies in compliance with IRS guidelines. We do not practice as CPA’s. We do not prepare tax returns and we are not performing an accounting study. What we are doing is analyzing your real estate project, by breaking down blueprints, as-built drawings and cost data, to determine which elements can be converted to personal property categories, in compliance with the tax code, thus depreciable over a much shorter lifetime. These and other comprehensive cash-flow solutions are designed for developers, investors, owner users and financiers of commercial real estate across the United States. Our firm is comprised of individuals not only experienced in cost segregation, but with many years of experience as tax advisors, financial officers, consulting engineers, construction cost estimators, and real estate developers.

While we provide engineered cost segregation, working with you, your CPA firm, and other tax, legal and business advisors, our work is not just an after-the-fact service. We are recognized and called on to develop strategies and implement solutions that dramatically increase net cash flow. As such, we play an integral part in pre- and post-development, acquisition and ongoing management decisions that positively impact your bottom line.

It’s ideal location is less than 20 minutes from some of the best dining in the southwest with over 150 restaurants, golf, skiing, river rafting, kayaking , world class fly fishing and a regional airport served by major and charter airlines and a hospital. There is also a 501(c)3 program designed to assist veterans with combat PTSD through the use of equine and canine therapy. The horses are mustangs from the bureau of land management and the dogs are all rescued.
