Benefits

Turn Depreciation Into Usable Cash Flow

Accelerate Depreciation

Identify qualifying property components that may be depreciated over shorter recovery periods.

Reduce Current Tax Liability

Earlier depreciation deductions may reduce current taxable income, subject to the owner’s tax circumstances.

Improve Property Cash Flow

Retaining more cash today may provide additional capital for improvements, acquisitions or operations.

Correct Missed Depreciation

Properties acquired in prior years may still qualify for a catch-up adjustment without necessarily amending every previous tax return.
