FAQ
Common questions.
01What is a cost segregation study?
An engineering-based reclassification of building components from 27.5-year depreciation into 5-, 7-, and 15-year property, unlocking large first-year deductions through bonus depreciation.
02Can property owners run their own study?
Unlevered is built for tax professionals. Owners can’t run their own study, but they can ask their CPA to use Unlevered, or we’ll route them to one in our network.
03What does OBBBA mean for new studies?
OBBBA restored 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying property. Every study runs the full eligibility check across placed-in-service, acquisition, and contract dates, and applies the correct bonus rate per component, including the TCJA phase-down years.
04How long does a study take?
Most studies deliver within 7 days of complete inputs. Complex multifamily can take longer. Every study clears the engineered review first.
05What’s a lookback study?
For long-held rentals that never had a cost seg study: the missed depreciation comes back as a §481(a) adjustment on the current return via Form 3115. No amended returns.
06Whose name is on the study?
Unlevered signs the study as its preparer; your firm is credited as the one who recommended it. You stay the sole tax return preparer and file from your own software. You’re never signing cost-seg work you didn’t perform.
07How does pricing work?
Firm access is free; applications are approved by hand. The only fee is per delivered study, billed to the property owner. Rates are on the partners page.
