How Cost Segregation Works for Delaware Properties

A cost segregation study identifies building components that can be depreciated over 5, 7, or 15 years instead of the standard 27.5 years (residential) or 39 years (commercial). Common reclassifiable components include flooring, cabinetry, electrical wiring, plumbing fixtures, HVAC distribution, parking lots, landscaping, and site improvements.

With 100% bonus depreciation permanently restored by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Delaware property owners can deduct the entire reclassified amount in the year of purchase. On a typical $1M commercial property, this means $200,000–$400,000 in accelerated deductions — translating to $70,000–$150,000 in income tax savings at a 37% marginal rate.
