Chris Pierce talks to Sean Graham as he shares his inspiring journey from CPA to real estate investor, unveiling how he uncovered the powerful tax advantages hidden in property components. You'll learn the fundamentals of depreciation: how the IRS assigns different lifespans to building elements, and how to leverage that knowledge to boost your deductions. Discover how the cost segregation engineering process breaks down your property into shorter-lived parts, creating opportunities for accelerated depreciation, sometimes recategorizing up to 30% of your basis into five and 15-year categories.
