Why cost segregation works in Alabama
Alabama combines a low cost of doing business with strong industrial, automotive, and aerospace corridors. Commercial real estate investors find affordable basis on warehouses, multifamily near major employment centers, and retail strips serving growing suburbs. An engineering-based cost segregation study reclassifies components of your Alabama property from 27.5- or 39-year real property into 5-, 7-, and 15-year MACRS class lives. Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), 100% bonus depreciation has been restored for qualifying property acquired and placed in service after January 19, 2025 — meaning every dollar of accelerated property identified can be deducted in year one.
