Summary

How would you like to pay little to no taxes because you're an owner of real estate? Since 1997, the increasing number of property owners have cut their current income taxes by using something called cost segregation. Alan Goldstein, founder of Emunah Cost Segregation, explains that with cost segregation, an owner of real estate can accelerate their depreciation and thereby reduce their federal income taxes for years. Alan is an IRS-enrolled agent, a Florida real estate broker and mortgage broker, and an expert in depreciation. He says basing on a fundamental principle that a dollar now is worth more than a dollar tomorrow, this same logic can be applied to tax deductions because a tax deduction now is worth more than a tax deduction tomorrow. Learn more about how you can have an immediate increase in cashflow and the tax savings available to you through cost segregation.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
