Which engagement are you pricing?
Engineered Tax Services is included in this comparison for cost segregation and specialty tax services, including energy and research-related incentives.
A relevant buyer profile: Owners and businesses comparing multiple specialty tax projects.
You have a property study need and another potential incentive, but they may require different evidence and engagements.
Ask how each specialty project is scoped and which professional coordinates it with your tax return.
Study scope and return handoff
Send the address, property type, acquisition or construction cost, land allocation, square footage, placed-in-service date, and existing depreciation schedule. Identify renovations and prior studies. A report-only price should be separated from site work, accounting method changes, amended returns, and representation.
| Item | What to verify |
|---|---|
| First-year cost | Add setup, cleanup, analysis, mandatory companion services, implementation, and filing charges for the same period. |
| Ongoing cost | Confirm renewal, minimum commitment, cancellation notice, and any price changes tied to business growth. |
| Scope boundaries | Which project needs to be completed first to meet my deadline? |
| Responsibility | Who resolves questions from my return preparer, and what happens if the report needs correction? |

Compare Engineered Tax Services with AE Tax Advisors
Compare only the work both proposals actually contain. AE’s current published standard advisory fee is $7,800, paid in two $3,900 installments 30 days apart, with no required recurring annual planning fee. Returns, amendments, cost segregation, and additional services are separately scoped. Confirm the current agreement before committing.
A lower filing or software price can be appropriate when that is all you need. A broader engagement can be appropriate when several professionals or workstreams must be coordinated. Neither price alone establishes quality, eligibility for a deduction, or guaranteed savings.
Review AE’s current fees and bring both proposals to a consultation to discuss scope and fit.
