Why Nevada owners are choosing Cost Seg America

If you are shopping your cost segregation study, read this first.

More and more Nevada investment property owners are turning to Cost Seg America, and once they understand what separates one study from another, it is not hard to see why.

Here is what the low-price firms do not put in their advertising. Many studies priced under $2,900 have minimal engineering, the gaps are filled in with modeling software, and in many cases the work is outsourced overseas. Ask yourself a simple question: when a study is run through software by someone who has never set foot in the United States, whose pocket is being padded? It is not yours.

A cheap study is not a discount. It is a study that quietly leaves your money behind.

$60K–$150K
On a typical $1 million property, that is roughly how much more a fully engineered Cost Seg America study uncovers compared to a cheap, software-driven one. That is real money, federal deductions you were entitled to, that a shortcut study simply never finds.

When you pay for a cost segregation study, you should get the study you thought you were paying for. A real one. Engineered component by component, by analysts who do the work properly and stand behind it.

Cost Seg America is an American company. Every study is performed by a 100% U.S.-based team, never outsourced, never shortcut with software. We have completed more than 16,000 studies over 24 years, supported clients through more than 125 IRS audits with zero losses, and never returned a dollar to the IRS. When a property owner trusts us with their building, American analysts do the work, and American analysts answer for it.

American analysts. American work. Done right.
Why cost segregation matters in Nevada…

Nevada is one of the strongest hospitality and industrial markets in the country.

Nevada's commercial real estate is defined by the Las Vegas Strip, one of the most concentrated hospitality markets in the world. Resort casino property, hotels, and entertainment venues fill the metro. Beyond the Strip, Las Vegas and Reno have both become major logistics hubs, with warehouse and distribution centers serving the western United States. Reno-Sparks industrial property has grown rapidly with tech and manufacturing investment. Multifamily demand across both metros has driven sustained apartment development. And short-term rental markets in Lake Tahoe and the Strip corridor round out a hospitality-heavy commercial base.

Every one of those buildings has a depreciation schedule, and most are depreciating far more slowly than federal law allows. Cost segregation is the engineering-based strategy that corrects that. Rather than depreciating a building over 27.5 or 39 years, a cost segregation study identifies the components that can be reclassified into 5-, 7-, and 15-year property, accelerating federal deductions, front-loading cash flow, and putting capital back in the owner's hands when it is most useful.

Across every region and county, property owners are sitting on federal deductions they have not claimed. We typically find $200,000 to $450,000 in additional Year 1 deductions per $1 million of property value.

The Nevada properties we study most…

Built for the property types that define Nevada real estate.

Nevada's commercial market is shaped by resort hospitality, industrial and logistics growth, and sustained multifamily demand. These are the Nevada property types where a cost segregation study most often delivers significant results.

Hotels, Resorts & Casinos
Las Vegas and Reno hospitality property carries furnishings, decorative finishes, specialty lighting, gaming-floor infrastructure, and site improvements suited to a fully engineered study.
Warehouse & Distribution
Las Vegas and Reno-Sparks distribution centers serve the western United States. Specialty lighting, dedicated electrical, and extensive site work reclassify strongly.
Multifamily & Apartments
Both Nevada metros have seen sustained apartment demand. Multifamily property carries substantial 5- and 15-year components across units and amenities.
Industrial & Manufacturing
Reno-Sparks industrial growth has drawn tech and manufacturing operations. Production facilities carry specialty electrical and process infrastructure that qualify.
Short-Term & Vacation Rentals
Lake Tahoe, the Strip corridor, and Las Vegas short-term rentals hold furnishings and finishes that reclassify at a meaningful rate.
Retail & Mixed-Use
Suburban retail, mixed-use, and entertainment retail across Las Vegas and Reno carry paving, signage, landscaping, and lighting suited to accelerated depreciation.
What a study typically uncovers…

The numbers that make owners pay attention.

Every property is different, and the only accurate figure is the one we put in writing for your specific building. But across the thousands of studies we have completed, a clear pattern holds, and cost segregation is not only for large commercial buildings.

Typical Year 1 finding
$200K–$450K
in additional deductions per $1M of property value
From the Strip to the Sierra Nevada, across all 16 counties and Carson City, Nevada commercial and rental property owners are sitting on federal deductions they have not claimed. We typically find $200,000 to $450,000 in additional Year 1 deductions per $1 million of property value, and we put it in writing before you commit to anything.

Bonus depreciation
Why this matters now

Bonus depreciation makes this the right moment.

Recent federal legislation restored 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying property placed in service after January 19, 2025. For a Nevada property owner, that means the short-life components a cost segregation study identifies can often be deducted in full in Year 1, dramatically accelerating cash flow. That is the difference between deducting a property over 27.5 or 39 years and pulling hundreds of thousands forward into the current year.

How a cost segregation study works…

Four steps. We handle the engineering.

01
Free proposal
Tell us about your property. Within 24 hours, we deliver a free, no-obligation proposal estimating your potential deductions.
02
Engineering analysis
Our 100% U.S.-based analysts perform a component-by-component engineering analysis of your property.
03
Your IRS-ready study
You receive a complete, fully documented, IRS-ready study, everything your tax professional needs to put the deductions to work, prepared and clearly explained.
04
Lifetime support
We stand behind every study for the life of the property, including lifetime audit support, at no additional charge. We do not hand you a document and disappear.

One note on filing: applying a completed study to your return is done through a Form 3115. In most cases your own CPA files it, it is standard work they already handle. If your CPA would rather not, we have a trusted partner CPA who can file it for a separate fee. Either way, it gets done, and you will know exactly what to expect up front.

The questions owners ask first…

Two honest concerns, answered directly.

"Won't a cost segregation study trigger an IRS audit?"
An engineering-based study does not, by itself, raise audit risk. What matters is the quality of the study. A fully engineered, properly documented study is a defensible tax position, the opposite of a red flag. Cost Seg America has supported clients through more than 125 IRS audits with zero losses.
"If this were worth it, wouldn't my CPA have told me?"
Not necessarily, and that is not a criticism of CPAs. Cost segregation is an engineering discipline, not an accounting one. It requires identifying and valuing building components, which is separate work from preparing a return. The best CPAs partner with a firm like Cost Seg America precisely because it is outside their core practice.

Cost segregation questions…

Answers for property owners.

How much can a cost segregation study uncover on a Nevada property?
It depends on the property type, age, and components, but a fully engineered study typically identifies $200,000 to $450,000 in additional Year 1 federal deductions per $1 million of property value.

What types of Nevada properties qualify for a cost segregation study?
Most commercial and residential rental properties in Nevada valued at $250,000 or more can benefit. Often substantially. Nevada's Las Vegas hospitality market is one of the most concentrated resort markets in the world. Casino resorts, hotels, and entertainment property carry furnishings, decorative finishes, specialty lighting, and gaming-floor infrastructure that frequently qualify for accelerated federal depreciation.
Does a cost segregation study increase the risk of an IRS audit?
An engineering-based cost segregation study does not, by itself, increase audit risk. What matters is the quality of the study. A fully engineered, well-documented study is a defensible tax position. Cost Seg America has supported clients through more than 125 IRS audits with zero losses.
