Which engagement are you pricing?
Maven Cost Segregation is included in this comparison for engineering-oriented cost segregation, Form 3115, and related specialty services.
A relevant buyer profile: Owners comparing detailed study and reporting-support options.
Your existing property has a long depreciation history that must be reconciled before implementation.
Ask how the study team and preparer review prior schedules and determine the reporting steps.
Provider-specific scope considerations
Maven’s public service menu includes detailed engineering studies, Form 3115, and R&D tax credits. It should not be described as offering only a study or as lacking Form 3115 services. Ask which technical project fits the property and which professional coordinates the report with the existing return preparer. AE’s wider owner advisory can be evaluated separately. An owner with older depreciation schedules should request a documented reconciliation and reporting assignment, rather than infer the full filing scope from either provider’s service menu.
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 | Who validates the old schedules before applying the study results? |
| Responsibility | Who resolves questions from my return preparer, and what happens if the report needs correction? |
A quote request tailored to this decision
Use this as a starting point and send sensitive documents through the provider’s secure intake process:
I am evaluating Maven Cost Segregation for engineering-oriented cost segregation, Form 3115, and related specialty services. Your existing property has a long depreciation history that must be reconciled before implementation. Who validates the old schedules before applying the study results? Please separate initial analysis, implementation, recurring support, and filing. Specify the legal entities and tax years covered, exclusions, required companion services, payment dates, and renewal terms. Who resolves questions from my return preparer, and what happens if the report needs correction?
Compare Maven Cost Segregation 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.
