Boost Cash Flow + Reduce Tax Burden w/ Cost Segregation
Presentation by Hazem Tawfik, Senior Project Engineer | Cost Recovery Solutions LLC
The goals of cost segregation are to:
- Reclassify a significant portion of depreciable assets of commercial properties (including residential rentals) to shorter tax recovery periods (personal property and land improvements)
- Accelerate depreciation deductions to save tax dollars now rather than later
- Reduce corporate and individual income taxes
- Improve cash flow
The tax savings provided to investors through cost segregation studies can significantly increase their return on investment and enable them to reinvest in new projects.
Hazem will discuss:- What is Cost Segregation?
- Benefits of Cost Segregation
- When Should Cost Segregation be Considered?
- Bonus Depreciation Overview
- Qualified Improvement Property/Tenant Improvements

Cost: SJREIA Members attend free -- visitors pay $20Host - Wholesaling Subgroup Leader Stephen Chatto
Stephen is an accomplished real estate professional with over two decades of experience. His journey began in 2000 purchasing his first 3 family rental properties. A few more rentals and all was well, but he still needed to work. In 2012 he saw the possibilities available to him through wholesaling real estate. He decided to fully commit to real estate full time wholesaling to sustainably meet financial obligations and obtain more properties.
Over time, Stephen’s expertise in the real estate market evolved from wholesaling to purchasing multiple rental portfolios using the BRRR strategy, and most recently pursuits in private lending for truly passive income. Wholesaling has made him his own boss and he wants others to experience the same freedom. He has run SJREIA’s Wholesaling Subgroup since 2016.Co-host Roland Jefferson
Roland is a real estate wholesaler and a man of faith with a beautiful wife and 3 fantastic grown children. After much prayer for alternative ways to increase his income during his 17 years in corporate American, where he maxed his income as a performance engineering IT computer consultant, Roland discovered real estate wholesaling. He dove into the information age of free podcasts and YouTube University to gain an understanding of this new opportunity during his long work commutes to New York City. Eventually, Roland began working part-time in wholesaling real estate and as his education grew, he invested in advanced training and coaching to accelerate his knowledge and develop more consistent deal flow.
Roland has been blessed with the ability to replace and exceed his corporate income enabling him to be a full-time real estate wholesaler for the past 2 years. In addition to his love of winning in the wholesale arena, Roland also has a passion for teaching new wholesalers and helping them to achieve their own success. Roland believes in being a blessing to motivated sellers, serious cash buyers and anyone willing to learn and work as a real estate wholesaler in order to be a positive impact in the lives of others.
Meeting the 2nd Thurs every month.
Real estate wholesaling is one of the most powerful strategies for investors.- How does it work?
