Chris Pierce and Sean Graham from Maven Cost Segregation discuss how most real estate investors overlook the incredible tax benefits of niche asset classes like gas stations and car washes. Sean Graham, owner of Maven Cost Segregation, reveals how these properties unlock massive depreciation advantages, sometimes allowing for 100% bonus depreciation in Year 1.
