The Cost Segregation King Yonah Weiss

🎙️ Cost Segregation 101 with Yonah Weiss — The Cost Segregation King

In this episode of Carson’s Corner: Commercial Real Estate, Carson sits down with the one and only Yonah Weiss, widely known as The Cost Segregation King, to demystify one of the most misunderstood (and most powerful) tax strategies available to property owners.

Whether you own a small duplex, a medical office, a gas station, or an RV park, cost segregation could change your entire tax picture — and Yonah breaks it all down in plain English.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
🔥 Cost Segregation Explained Simply
What it is, why it exists, and how depreciation really works for property owners.
🏗️ Which Property Types Benefit Most
From multifamily to mobile home parks, RV parks, gas stations, retail centers, industrial, and more.
Spoiler: RV parks and gas stations can produce shockingly high first-year write-offs.
💰 How Small Is “Too Small” to Qualify?
Yonah explains why anything purchased over $200,000 (yes, even single-family rentals) is worth reviewing.
🧾 Audit-Proof Engineering Reports
How a 100+ page cost seg study protects you under IRS guidelines — and why you should never try to DIY depreciation.
⏳ Is It Ever Too Late to Do Cost Seg?
Why owners who bought 3, 4, even 6 years ago can still capture massive “catch-up” depreciation without amending past returns.
🏢 Business Owners: You’re Probably Missing Out
If you own the real estate your business operates in, you might be able to offset active business income — even if you’re not a real estate professional.
💼 1031 Exchanges, Opportunity Zones & Recapture
Yonah dismantles the common myths and explains how these strategies work together to reduce or eliminate recapture and capital gains.
