Gian Pazzia: Leveraging Cost Segregation and Bonus Depreciation like a PRO to WIPE OUT your Taxes

Today, I welcome Gian Pazzia to The Investing Secrets Podcast. Gian is the Co-Founder of KBKG, one of the largest cost segregation firms in the United States, and today he breaks down how real estate investors use cost segregation and depreciation to dramatically reduce - and in many cases, eliminate - their taxable income. He explains how cost segregation works, why it’s one of the most powerful yet underutilized tools in real estate investing, and how high-net-worth investors and institutional funds leverage it to accelerate deductions and maximize cash flow.

Gian also dives into bonus depreciation, recapture, and the 1031 exchange - showing how the most sophisticated investors use these tools together to defer taxes indefinitely. Later, he reveals how short-term rental owners can tap into the “short-term rental loophole” to offset ordinary income, and how residential investors can now access cost segregation studies at a fraction of the cost through his firm’s software.

With over 25 years of experience serving some of the nation’s largest real estate owners, Gian demystifies complex tax strategies in a way that any investor can understand and apply. Whether you own a single rental or a large commercial portfolio, this episode will open your eyes to the hidden tax advantages that separate the amateurs from the pros.

Looking to build lasting wealth through alternative investments? You’re in the right place.

If you’re new here, my name is Danny Gould. I’m the founder and CEO of Gould Capital, a private equity firm specializing in exclusive commercial real estate and other alternative investments. We connect investors with elite opportunities - investments that aren’t public, aren’t cookie-cutter, and most importantly, aren’t what your financial advisor is pitching.

Here’s how I got here…

1) Started as a pre-med student at Stanford University, but a lifelong dream of building the biggest hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip ignited my passion for real estate.
2) Transitioned to residential real estate, driving over a quarter billion dollars in sales, and became an industry leader in one of the most competitive markets in the world.
3) Decided to finally pursue my Hotel dreams and founded GMS Ventures alongside two experienced Hoteliers, with a total Hotel Portfolio Size of over $300M
4) Leveraged my expertise and relationships to build Gould Capital - which empowers investors to access transformative commercial real estate deals and alternative investments.
