Duffy + Duffy Cost Segregation Experts

Cost Segregation allows commercial building owners to generate cash flow by accelerating depreciation deductions on their buildings and deferring taxes. An engineering-based Cost Segregation Study is the only method recognized by the IRS to identify Personal Property and Land Improvements contained in a commercial structure. Read an article, co-written by Dennis Duffy, as published in Builder’s Exchange Magazine.

"Duffy + Duffy's team of experts conducted a cost segregation study for Cawrse & Associates Inc. newly constructed office building, and their existing office building. The income tax deferrals and cash flow generated through cost segregation for both buildings was significant. Cost Segregation is a smart and valuable tax planning tool that every owner should do."
Craig E. Cawrse, FASLA, Cawrse & Associates, Inc.

"Duffy + Duffy's cost segregation allows real property owners to accelerate depreciation for tax purposes by classifying a portion of the investment to personal property rather than real property In Jenne's case about 34% of the building cost was classified to personal property and resulting in tax savings of approximately $195,000."
Rose Jenne, Jenne Distributors, Inc.
