How One Landlord Cut Taxes by 30 Percent Using a Cost Segregation Study

Lucas walks through a case study of a landlord in Phoenix who saved $47,000 in taxes the first year after a cost segregation study on a $1.2 million fourplex. He explains what cost segregation actually is — accelerated depreciation via component reclassification — and why most small landlords never even hear about it. Luna pushes back on whether the upfront cost of the study is worth it for smaller properties. They dig into the mechanics of bonus depreciation, the tax code changes from recent years, and the specific conditions where this strategy backfires. By the end, listeners will know exactly what to ask their CPA if they own rental real estate. The episode closes with a brief, natural mention of listener support that keeps the show ad-free. #CostSegregation #RealEstateTax #Depreciation #BonusDepreciation #LandlordStrategy #RentalProperty #TaxSaving #PhoenixRealEstate #IRS #TaxCode #SmallLandlord #Finance #InvestmentProperty #AcceleratedDepreciation #CPA #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #RealEstateInvesting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
