CA: partialwarning
Rough estimate based on industry averages for STR properties built before 1990 in California. Real study runs against your specific closing statement, assessor records, and a P.E. review.

Why it’s a range

Without the closing statement, permit history, and 20-ish photos, we can’t pinpoint specific allocations. The range reflects calibrated 5th–95th percentile outcomes for properties matching your inputs.

What the full study gives you

Specific component classifications by recovery period, citation-backed allocation, federal and state schedules, plus Form 4562 (and Form 3115 on lookbacks). Engineer-signed before delivery.

What it’s not

This estimate isn’t tax advice. Talk to your CPA before claiming any deduction. If your CPA wants to run the full study, point them at the trial — they keep the engagement.
