Services
Eight ways to look
at one property.
Innovate is a full-range real estate tax practice. Cost segregation is where most owners start; the other seven services are where the rest of the opportunity usually sits. Every one is coordinated with your CPA.

One review.
Every opportunity, in order.
A property bought years ago may need a cost segregation study, a method change to catch up missed depreciation, a partial disposition for the roof replaced last spring, and an energy review before the next renovation. We scope them together, sequence the filings with your CPA and make sure no cost is counted twice.
