Every Dollar You've Spent on Property Is a Tax Strategy Waiting to Happen

Most CPAs aren't tax engineers. They file what you give them and move on. We do the opposite — we reverse-engineer your property, construction, and operating expenses to surface deductions the IRS already lets you take but most owners never claim.

Whether the bill is already paid, the property is already placed in service, or the return has already been filed — it's almost never too late. We make it a deductible.

The Seven Ways We Make It Deductible

Each strategy targets a different layer of your tax exposure. We stack them — that's where the real savings come from.

Cost Segregation

Reclassify building components from 27.5/39-year property into 5, 7, and 15-year buckets. Front-loads depreciation and frees real cash.

263A UNICAP Exemption

Recover soft costs — architectural, engineering, financing, indirect labor — most CPAs leave capitalized and stranded.

Find soft costs →

179D Energy Deduction

Up to $5/sqft for HVAC, LED, roofing, and envelope upgrades. IRA enhancements made this one of the most valuable deductions on the books.

Run the numbers →

Tangible Property Regs

Audit your old returns for missed write-offs. TPRs let us go backward and capture deductions you've been depreciating for years.

Look backward →

Green Zip Tape

Reclassify interior walls from 39-year to 5-year property using a patented demountable assembly system. 5–10% of construction cost, recoverable now.

Reclassify drywall →

Method Change (Form 3115)

Catch up on missed deductions from prior years without amending. Form 3115 lets you sweep the corrections into the current return.

Catch up missed savings →

R&D Tax Credits

Construction, engineering, software, process improvement — the activities you already do that qualify as research under IRC §41.
