• The process of analyzing and identifying residential rental/multi-family or
commercial building components that are eligible for accelerated depreciation,
providing a significant tax benefit for the taxpayer
• Engineering-based is defined as the “Certain Method” by the IRS
• Accelerating Depreciation increases expense deductions to offset the income
RESULT = TAX SAVINGS = CASH FLOW

Personal Property is Segregated from Real Property
$50k to $80k in Savings per $1 Million in Basis
