Flex Tax provides specialized knowledge about cost segregation for individual components of property, which is significant when the property is acquired or constructed, and different components or asset groups have different recovery periods and placed-in-service dates.

Our team will provide cost-segregation studies that result in significant tax benefits while ensuring that property costs are correct and total project costs among components are correctly classified.
