Why industrial properties reclassify well in Michigan
Michigan's automotive and manufacturing base drives heavy industrial activity, with Detroit's revitalization adding multifamily and adaptive-reuse engagements.
Warehouse & Industrial properties have a particular profile that makes cost segregation especially valuable: distribution and manufacturing — racking, paving, dedicated process electrical. The shell sits on a 39-year recovery period under MACRS — but every warehouse & industrial is hundreds of components, many of which qualify for 5-, 7-, or 15-year recovery and accelerated bonus depreciation.
Typical reclassification ratio
For a warehouse & industrial in Michigan, TDA studies typically reclassify 15–22% 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.
