As your Owner's Representative, we will look out for your best interest. Our goal is to make sure the progress of your project stays on track and remains on schedule and within the approved project budget. We will work together to identify project issues and present you with the facts so you are able to make informed decisions, quickly.
As an architect, engineer or owner, you understand the importance of the project budget. We can assist you in reducing the risk of project cost overruns throughout the course of the project. We achieve this by integrating our multi-disciplined staff of cost estimators, mechanical and electrical engineers, quantity surveyors and construction management personnel with our state-of-the-art estimating software and technology.
You may be asking the obvious questions right now. What is a Cost Segregation Study? And how can it benefit my business? The short answer? It can accelerate depreciation. And the reason we accelerate depreciation is simple: to increase your cash flow and reduce your taxes.
Our Cost Segregation Studies are based on a sound cost engineering analysis of your property combined with a focused tax analysis that will allow you to accelerate depreciation from the normal 39-year schedule.With this tool, you can virtually write off all the property that the study identifies to be a 5-, 7- and 15-year property.
