Imagine earning as much as $10K in cashflow distributions from your investment in a multifamily property in a given year—yet claiming a taxable LOSS! You CAN mitigate (and in many cases even eliminate) taxable income for years with the MAGIC of bonus depreciation. But you do need to do a cost segregation analysis to claim it.

Terry Judge is the Founder and CEO of CORE Solutions Group, one of the nation’s leading cost recovery consulting firms specializing in engineering-based cost segregation studies. He is committed to educating multifamily investors on how to maximize cashflow and take full advantage of the ever-changing tax code. Terry has 14 years of experience in the cost seg space, yielding more than $1B in net tax savings for CORE clients.

On this episode of Apartment Building Investing, Terry joins me to discuss the benefits of doing a cost segregation analysis, explaining how it accelerates depreciation and mitigates the investor’s taxable income. He describes how changes to the 2017 tax code in made it useful for even small multifamily buildings to leverage a cost seg study and walks us through the advantages of taking bonus depreciation in Year 1 (versus spreading it out over the hold period). Listen in for Terry’s insight around the best exit strategies for avoiding a big tax bill and learn about the additional tax breaks you can earn with energy-saving renovations.
