  • Cost Segregation 101: The Tax Strategy Most Investors Never Hear About
    Own an investment property worth $300K or more? In this conversation, Brad Roche sits down with Terry Judge, CEO of Core Advisors, to walk through what cost segregation is, why most CPAs never bring it up, and how a study can move a large share of a property's value into accelerated depreciation. They cover who it fits, short-term rental and real estate professional rules, bonus depreciation, audit defense, and what a study typically costs compared to what it can return.

    This is educational only and is not tax advice. Talk with your CPA or tax advisor about your own situation.
