Pre-Acquisition Depreciation Estimates

Underwrite the deal with the depreciation in it. Before you close, Engineering prepares an estimate of what an engineered study is expected to accelerate on the property you are buying.

Pre-Acquisition Depreciation Estimates

The estimate sits inside due diligence

Commercial investors buying office, retail and industrial buildings want the most bonus depreciation in year one, and they want to know it before they close. The estimate gives the underwriting a depreciation number prepared by Engineering.

Under contract

Send the deal

Address, property type, purchase price under contract, expected closing and planned improvements.

Due diligence

Estimate prepared

Engineering prepares the estimate, with a written, fixed-fee proposal for the study within 24 to 48 hours.

Closing

Underwritten

The expected depreciation is already in the model when you close, and in the investor materials if you are syndicating.

First return

The engineered study

After closing, the study produces the allocation and schedule for the first return that includes the property.
