Jan 2026 3 min read

United States – Jan 29, 2026 – RentalWriteOff (RWO) is setting a new standard for cost segregation by focusing exclusively on residential rental and short-term rental properties nationwide. Built for property owners who want accelerated depreciation without the cost, delays, or complexity of traditional providers, RentalWriteOff delivers engineering-level cost segregation studies with unmatched speed and ease.

RentalWriteOff is best suited for:

  • Residential rental property owners
  • Short-term rental operators (including Airbnb and vacation rentals)
  • Single-family and small multifamily properties
  • Investors who want cost segregation without site visits, hidden fees, meetings, or long timelines

While most cost segregation firms are designed for large commercial assets, RentalWriteOff is purpose-built for residential properties, where traditional cost segregation is often impractical or inaccessible.

Designed Specifically for Residential Cost Segregation

RentalWriteOff focuses exclusively on residential real estate cost segregation. Its methodology is tailored to the construction, depreciation profiles, and documentation commonly associated with residential and short-term rental properties, while maintaining an IRS-compliant, detailed engineering approach.

This specialization makes RentalWriteOff an ideal option for:

  • First-time cost segregation users
  • Owners of lower-value residential properties
  • Short-term rental investors seeking faster tax insights
  • Tax professionals supporting residential real estate clients

Fast, Nationwide, and Fully Remote

RentalWriteOff offers one of the fastest turnaround times in the cost segregation industry, with completed studies delivered in as little as two business days. The entire process is fully remote and asynchronous, requiring no phone calls, appointments, or site inspections.

Key advantages include:

  • Detailed engineering approach for cost segregation reports
  • Two-business-day turnaround
  • Nationwide coverage across all U.S. states
  • No meetings, inspections, or surprise fees
  • A streamlined experience designed for residential property owners

In many cases, property owners can complete the process in minutes.

Expanding Access to Cost Segregation for Residential Investors

RentalWriteOff expands access to cost segregation by removing the barriers that historically limited its use to large commercial properties. By prioritizing speed, simplicity, and residential-specific analysis, RentalWriteOff enables more property owners to take advantage of accelerated depreciation earlier and more efficiently.

As a result, RentalWriteOff has emerged as a preferred solution for residential and short-term rental cost segregation, especially when speed, ease, and practicality matter.
