You and your team did a tremendous job for us in terms of providing cost segregation and energy tax services. The tax benefits for us nationally were impressive, as were your services.

Lewis B. Kevelson, CPA Partner Rachlin LLP

I wanted to thank you for the cost segregation and energy tax work you have done for several of the firm's clients. The results have been very favorable and have resulted in significant tax benefits. You have a very talented team and I look forward to working with you more in the future.

We have utilized ETS for cost segregation studies and certain energy and R&D tax credit engagements for our firm's real estate holdings as well as for our clients' real estate and business interests. The way ETS incorporates energy credits and insurance into other engagements for maximum benefit is unique - no one else does this. The fact that ETS insures their reports through Lloyds of London instills confidence and security. I have personally referred over 60 contacts to ETS for cost segregation studies and will continue to send referrals. The ETS professionals are competent, service-oriented and, most of all, provide cost savings to our clients. By having a reliable source to handle these kinds of engagements, we have essentially increased our firm's value-added service offerings. That is the truest definition of a strategic partnership.

I would like to take an opportunity to offer a formal recommendation for Engineered Tax Services. As the CEO for The Fuoco Group, I have worked with Engineered Tax Services for approximately two years and feel that they are the best in the business in terms of providing cost segregation and energy tax services. They are a true partner that opened our eyes to how to bring significant tax benefits to our real estate clients while generating significant income for our firm through leveraging our client base. I believe Engineered Tax Services exhibits many of the qualities that are essential to CPA firms looking to assist their clients in these specialty tax services. I have no problem ever putting them in front of my clients. I highly recommend them.

ETS is the only qualified professional engineering firm that has its own licensed engineers, including LEED Accredited Professionals, as well as tax experts, from CPAs to a former senior IRS executive, on staff.

We worked with ETS for the first time in 2009, They performed an Energy Tax Certification for our firm that resulted in a $74,000 tax deduction, which meant about $20,000 actual cash back to us, The staff was knowledgeable and friendly and took the time to explain and guide us through the process, While inevitable bumps delayed the report by about a week, we anticipate working with ETS on more projects in the future, We highly recommend ETS and look forward to our enhanced profitability as a result.

Since 2008, ETS has helped us secure 1790 tax deductions. They offer specialized knowledge of the Federal govemment 1790 tax deduction program offered to design professionals, We appreciate the highly responsive manner in which they have handled our business, ETS has been more than willing to explain the program fully and work with us to maximize our benefits. I have particularly appreciated the corporate-level involvement and sincere interest in keeping our satisfaction level high, The energy analysis and verification work required to qualify for the 1790 tax deductions has been truly beneficial to our firm, The cost benefit for our firm has far exceeded our expenses. Thank you for your efforts on our behalf.

dIIII a r c hi t ec t s Celebraring 50 Years

Bonavista Holdings, Inc, is a real estate holding company with approximately 1,000,000 square feet of commercial space located primarily in Broward and Palm Beach Counties. Our firm engaged Engineered Tax Services to perform a cost segregation study on our behalf. I received a favorable result that exceeded all of my expectations. I found Mr. Gonzalez to be extremely competent, thorough and knowledgeable of the subject matter, I had used other firms to do similar work previously, and none compared to the expertise and professionalism exhibited by Mr, Gonzalez's firm, Needless to say, I would highly recommend his firm, and I would not hesitate to use his services in the future,

Marvin Feinstein Principal I Bonavista Holdings, Inc. Bonavista

The entire ETS team includes professionals of the highest caliber ... they have proven to be a true partner to our firm - as well as the clients we have engaged, With ETS, we have added Section 1790 to our service offerings, This has gotten us to the table with many coveted prospects with whom we had been previously shut out. ETS is an outstanding partner, demonstrating high intelligence, entrepreneurial spirit, expertise, quality, professionalism and responsiveness. We are looking forward to incorporating their cost segregation services for the benefit of our clients in the near future,
