Brentwood's rapid growth as a premier East Bay suburb–with top schools, new developments, and BART commuter access–drives strong rental demand in Contra Costa County.

For Brentwood investors, the typical ROI ranges from 5x to 20x the cost of the study, depending on property value and type. A single-family rental with a $300,000 building basis might generate $20,000-$30,000 in first-year tax savings from a study costing $1,750-$2,750.

Land is non-depreciable, so higher land values reduce the depreciable basis. In high-land-value areas of Brentwood, a $500,000 property might only have a $200,000 building basis. We use defensible methods to establish the land allocation for maximum benefit.
