Bank Buildings
Banking CFOs have achieved significant
tax savings by having us identify assets
hidden within their facility. Many were
previously over-looked and, unknown to
them, qualified for accelerated
depreciation to lower taxable income,
and thereby, federal and state taxes. To
deliver these savings we performed a
Banking Cost Segregation Study with our
team of specialists. These studies are
sophisticated and require technical
competence in the engineering,
construction, estimating, appraisal, and
tax disciplines in addition to extensive
cost segregation experience. Therefore,
they are fully recognized by the IRS,
and our team performs hundreds for
corporations, accountants and CPA firms
throughout the country.
