About Ruggiero:

Ruggiero joined McClarigan in January 2025 after serving 5 years in various Cost Segregation roles, both in consulting and valuation, after graduating from Georgia State University in 2018. He plays a key leadership role in overseeing Cost Segregation projects, ensuring clients maximize tax savings and improve cash flow. With extensive expertise in multiple real estate classes, including Industrial, Multi-family, Office, Retail, and Recreation, he manages the full scope of Cost Segregation studies—from aligning tax strategies, asset classifications, to detailed site inspections, in-depth financial analysis, client communication, and project deliverables.

Beyond project execution, Ruggiero is dedicated to building strong relationships and educating clients on the benefits of Cost Segregation - optimizing their real estate investments, fostering expertise within the firm, and driving innovative strategies to enhance client outcomes.

Ruggiero is a true family-first kind of person as he mostly enjoys spending time with his loved ones as well as with his lovely girlfriend, Eliza. When not performing Cost Segregation studies, he enjoys traveling, coaching football, golfing, hiking, and playing various instruments including guitar, drums, and piano. As a former Quarterback on the football team at Georgia State, he never misses a chance to visit Atlanta to attend games and is an avid Cincinnati Bengals fan!
