Our tax depreciation and asset management specialists can help investors optimise their return on investment properties by reporting the maximised annual depreciation claimable to offset the owner’s assessable income.
A property that produces income will decrease in value over time as buildings and assets on that property wear out, a process called depreciation. As a property owner you are entitled by the ATO to claim the expense of depreciation over the years as a tax deduction. Tax depreciation enhances the value of your investment by putting more money in your pocket when you receive your tax return.

This analysis encompasses demolition works as well as looking at what needed done in way of repair replacement to make tenancy condition the same as it was at start of lease.
