Why cost segregation works in Louisiana
Louisiana's energy, petrochemical, and port economy drives unique industrial and hospitality cost segregation work. New Orleans STRs and hotels are particularly strong reclassification candidates. An engineering-based cost segregation study reclassifies components of your Louisiana 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.
