Tax Depreciation Is More Important Than Ever

Let's Talk

Understand your property and depreciation requirements

We learn about your property, what you plan to do with it and your depreciation requirements. Based on the information available, we provide an initial indication of the deductions that may be available, explain the process and answer your questions.

• Explore what depreciation could look like for your property
• Talk through what you are hoping to achieve
• Confirm the fee before you proceed
• Collect the details needed to arrange an inspection

Quote & Documentation

Receive your quote and provide key property details

We provide a quote and ask for key details, such as the purchase price and settlement date, along with any relevant property documents. Our fee is a one-off cost and is tax deductible for an income-producing rental property.

• Property and ownership details
• Obtain property access contact
• Relevant supporting records

Property Inspection

Arrange access for an onsite inspection

We arrange access and inspect the property onsite. Our quantity surveying team records the building's features, condition, fixtures and eligible depreciating assets. The inspection gives us first-hand information about the property and helps identify all possible items.

• Confirm construction details, layout and finishes first-hand
• Find improvements, renovations, fixtures and fittings that may be overlooked
• Assess eligible deductions using construction costs rather than the purchase price

Because you cannot identify what you do not see.

Information Assessment

Bring together purchase documents and inspection findings

We review the information you provide alongside construction and renovation details identified during the inspection. By tracing the property's history, we build a timeline of relevant works and costs for our quantity surveying team to use when preparing the schedule.

• Building structure and fixed improvements
• Eligible renovations completed over time
• External works where applicable

Maximise Your Deductions

Prepare your tax depreciation schedule

Our quantity surveyors assess eligible building works, renovations, fixtures and fittings. They estimate construction costs where records are unavailable and assess eligible depreciating assets using the relevant values and tax rules.

• Items recorded during inspection
• Asset values and effective dates
• Relevant information for tax and CGT records
