Cost segregation is an IRS-compliant tax strategy that reclassifies components of your multifamily property—such as flooring, appliances, landscaping, and land improvements—from the standard 27.5-year depreciation schedule into shorter 5-, 7-, or 15-year schedules. This accelerates your depreciation deductions, significantly reducing your taxable income in the early years of ownership and freeing up cash flow to reinvest in additional properties.
