45L Tax Credit – Energy-Efficient Home Credit

The 45L tax credit offers significant benefits to homebuilders, providing up to $5,000 in tax credits for each eligible home. This credit promotes sustainable construction practices, encouraging environmentally friendly building methods and offering long-term savings for homeowners. Our comprehensive support includes identifying eligible improvements, calculating credit values, and guiding you through certification.

179D Tax Deduction – Commercial and Residential Properties

For commercial properties, the 179D tax deduction presents lucrative opportunities for tax savings. By adhering to ASHRAE energy-efficiency standards, buildings can qualify for deductions of up to $5.00 per square foot. This deduction applies to various building types, including office spaces, retail stores, warehouses, and residential properties. Our team helps identify eligible measures, ensuring compliance and maximizing potential tax benefits.

Cost Segregation Study

A cost segregation study offers significant benefits to property owners by accelerating depreciation deductions, which can lead to substantial tax savings. This process involves a detailed analysis of a property’s components, identifying and reclassifying personal property assets that can be depreciated over shorter periods, sometimes in year one, but typically 5 to 15 years—rather than the standard 27.5 or 39 years for real property. By front-loading depreciation expenses, clients can reduce their taxable income in the early years of property ownership, improving cash flow and allowing for reinvestment opportunities. Additionally, a cost segregation study can uncover potential deductions that might have been overlooked, ensuring clients fully capitalize on their tax benefits and optimize their financial strategy.

Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credit 

The R&D Tax Credit provides substantial financial incentives for businesses that engage in innovation and technological advancement. By conducting a thorough R&D tax credit study, companies can identify qualifying activities and expenses related to the development or improvement of products, processes, software, or inventions. This credit directly reduces a company’s tax liability, often resulting in significant tax savings. For many clients, this means increased funds available for further investment in research and development, fostering a culture of innovation and competitive advantage. Additionally, the R&D tax credit can be retroactively claimed, allowing businesses to benefit from past innovations. Overall, the R&D tax credit helps clients by lowering their tax burden, enhancing cash flow, and encouraging ongoing investment in technological growth and improvement.
