Childcare Center cost segregation in Ohio.

Why childcare centers reclassify well in Ohio

Ohio's diversified industrial, healthcare, and university economy supports steady cost segregation activity across all three Cs — Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati.

Childcare Center properties have a particular profile that makes cost segregation especially valuable: playground, fencing, dedicated kitchen and laundry, casework. The shell sits on a 39-year recovery period under MACRS — but every childcare center is hundreds of components, many of which qualify for 5-, 7-, or 15-year recovery and accelerated bonus depreciation.

Typical reclassification ratio

For a childcare center in Ohio, TDA studies typically reclassify 25–32% of depreciable basis. Combined with 100% OBBBA bonus depreciation on property acquired and placed in service after January 19, 2025, that translates the entire reclassified amount into a year-one deduction.
