  • 100% Bonus Depreciation Is Back - Permanently. Here’s the Cost Seg Playbook for 2026
    2026/07/15
    Episode Summary

    Cost segregation expert Richmond Stacker (CEO, USA Cost Segregation) joins Tommy Thompson and Justin Kiehne to unpack the tax code’s most powerful real estate tool. This episode covers the cost segregation fundamentals, why the short-term rental “loophole” is a trap, the recapture arbitrage most investors miss, and how the One Big Beautiful Bill made 100% bonus depreciation permanent starting January 19, 2025.

    Key Takeaways

    • Cost seg = an engineering study that reclassifies building assets into 5-, 7-, and 15-year property, front-loading 30–40% of your basis into year-one deductions.

    • 100% bonus depreciation is BACK — and permanent — for property placed in service on or after January 19, 2025 under the OBBBA.

    • QIP expensing (HVAC, roof, flooring) sunsets Dec 31, 2029. That piece isn’t permanent — the clock is ticking.

    • Not for everyone. Skip cost seg on properties under ~$500K, on properties you’re about to sell, or when you already have losses.

    • The short-term rental “loophole” is a trap. 100-hour material participation, no property manager, no 7+ day stays — most investors don’t actually qualify.

    • Recapture is real, but so is the arbitrage. Offset income at 37%, recapture at 25%, and use a 1031 exchange to eliminate it entirely.

    • Bought property in 2022–2024 without doing cost seg? Not too late. A Form 3115 catch-up can convert taxes owed into a refund.

    • The math checks out. One client paid ~$7K more for a proper study and captured an additional $400K in tax savings.
