If you own or lease commercial or residential income property, this will likely be the most critical information you have heard since the Covid-19 outbreak.

During this uncertain time, most business owners are faced with difficult decisions regarding cash flow. We can help you increase cash flow NOW, through new and existing tax legislation, because you own commercial property.

Please don’t miss this critical tax information.

Join us for a live 30-minute webinar on Tuesday, April 14th at 1:00pm CST. We will be discussing how, as a business owner, you are able to make cash available immediately by utilizing existing tax laws and the new CARES Act. We will be explaining two specific items, NOLs and Qualified Improvement Property, within the act that have been designed to allow you to get money back from the US Treasury when you need it most. These topics are not related to the SBA loan process; this is an additional viable source of cash flow.

The CARES Act and Cost Segregation – New Opportunities

30 Mar

The CARES Act, a $2.2 Trillion bill was passed in response to the Corona virus Pandemic. There are parts of this bill that will have a direct impact on Cost Segregation. Please contact me for more information or to assist you in helping your clients take advantage of this new information.

Net Operating Losses:

Allows for a five year carryback of net operating losses arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020. It also allows net operating losses to offset 100% of income (as opposed to being limited to no carryback and only to 80% income offset from carryforward losses under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that was in place before the CARES Act).

Impact – Example – A Cost Segregation study is applied in 2019 which causes such a large depreciation deduction that the client reports a net operating loss in 2019. He can carry this loss back for 5 years and apply it to gains made in those years. This would result in a tax refund providing cash flow in a time of need.

Important Note – The 5 year carryback rules require you to go back 5 years and roll forward from there if the loss is in excess of the carryback years income.
Example – John Smith has income for the past 5 years, and a loss in 2019 as follows:
2014 – $75,000
2015 – $150,000
2016 – $400,000
2017 – $350,000
2018 – $195,000
2019 – $(425,000)
In this case John would roll the $425,000 loss back to the 5th year 2014 and offset all of that income, then roll the remaining $350,000 to 2015 and offset all of that income, and finally roll the balance of $200,000 to 2016.

Qualified Improvement Property:

Qualified Improvement Property has been corrected to be identified as 15 year property meaning it would be eligible for 100% bonus depreciation. This change is effective for property acquired and placed in service after 9/27/2017.

Impact – Since the definition of Qualified Improvement Property was introduced, CSSI has been identifying this property as Qualified Improvement Property within our reports. This property is now eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, so previous clients with this type of property included in their reports can now retroactively apply bonus depreciation to these improvements. 

More Time:

With the extension of time to file for 2019 taxes, there are opportunities to still have Engineering-Based Cost Segregation done for any commercial or rental residential properties over $200,000.
