Cost Segregation Studies for Ohio
Ohio is the quintessential Mid-Western state. Outside of wide-open spaces and scenic river valleys, Ohio has many great cities, including Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Columbus. Ohio has a long history of being an industrial center, and that has not changed, with manufacturing, fabricating, refining, and other industrial processes being the top moneymakers. But Ohio also has a growing green energy industry, as well as biotechnology and finance.
Ohio’s rich and diverse economy means that there are plenty of commercial properties that could benefit from cost segregation. While most commercial properties can be helped with this technique, cost segregation benefits those with high incomes the most, as depreciation can only offset income if there is enough income to offset. Industrial and office properties are goldmines for short-life and long-term depreciation, though green industry structures typically benefit the most.
