Frequently Ask Questions

What types of properties benefit the most?

Every property is unique. Here is a simple illustration for a stabilized multifamily asset. Values shown are directional and for planning only.

Can you work with properties placed in service in a prior year?

Yes. A Form 3115 automatic method change allows a one‑time catch‑up deduction §481(a) for prior‑year assets without amending returns.

Will this increase my audit risk?

A properly prepared study with clear engineering support and photos is designed to withstand scrutiny. We align our workpapers to IRS guidance and support your team if questions arise.

Can I still benefit if I plan to sell soon?

Many sellers still benefit from near‑term tax savings and improved cash flow, especially alongside strategies like 1031 exchanges or proper handling of partial asset dispositions. Your situation will drive the right answer.
