What RE Cost Seg publishes about study fees
R.E. publishes different starting fees for Rapid Report and Fully Engineered. These are entry prices for different services, not interchangeable quotes. Confirm product eligibility, records and the final fee directly.
Checked 2026-10-19: official fee and service information. Advertised starting prices and broad ranges can change; the accepted proposal determines your engagement.
Scope questions that change the comparison
A rental with extensive construction costs needs a clear intake plan. Identify who organizes the cost ledger and resolves mixed invoices before comparing the fee. If an inspection is required, confirm how access will be provided and whether an in-person option adds cost. Keep rush fees and filing work separate from the study fee, and do not compare the two product names as if only the price changes.
- Is this a Rapid Report or Fully Engineered engagement?
- When is intake complete for the delivery clock?
- What written study support is included, and what representation is excluded?
Stratum fee examples for the same square footage
Stratum pricing is $1 per square foot, with a $2,000 minimum per property. Apply the minimum separately to each property. The following are Stratum examples, not RE Cost Seg quotes or tax-benefit estimates.
| Square feet | Stratum study fee | RE Cost Seg fee |
|---|---|---|
| 1,500 | $2,000 minimum | Obtain the applicable proposal |
| 3,500 | $3,500 | Obtain the applicable proposal |
| 10,000 | $10,000 | Obtain the applicable proposal |
Calculate Stratum’s study fee. Do not compare one firm’s entry price against another firm’s complete project fee without reconciling the work included.
Build a complete quote comparison
- Write down the property address, square footage and cost periods. Use the same facts for both firms.
- Identify the study product and deliverable. Request a sample report and asset schedule for your CPA.
- Separate base study fee, travel, rush work, later improvements, corrections and filing support. Mark each as included, excluded or separately quoted.
- Record the intake requirements and the milestone that starts the delivery target. A short target is useful only when its dependencies are clear.
- Ask the CPA which tax benefit is usable before comparing it with the total project cost.
A study identifies and documents assets. A return preparer decides how the final information applies to the taxpayer’s circumstances. Ask who handles implementation and ongoing records before treating a study fee as the entire cost of the project.
