Cost Segregation for SFR, and does Bonus Depreciation apply?

Looking at some SFR homes to purchase, in the $140K range ( 1 story, brick ranch, garage, 3br). Providing all the usual calculations work out ( rent, expenses, management) I have a few more questions on how to help my taxes.

Question 1, Would cost segregation be an advantage for depreciation? For an average $140K house, lot worth $20K, how much of the overall cost of the house would apply ( rough estimate - roof, AC, cabinets?, floors?, light fixtures, ...)? Guess $20-30K?

Question 2, If segregation works out, does the new Bonus Depreciation now apply? Can I deduct all short term depreciation in Yr 1?

Question 3, Is there an income cap to taking these deductions? (not a real estate professional)

Thanks, I have heard multiple opinions on this. 

Chuck
