Claim Tax Depreciation Entitlements

In the 2010/2011 financial year, the ATO reported that there were 1,811,174 individuals that owned a rental property. If you’re one of those investors, it’s crucial to ensure you’re claiming your depreciation entitlements.

Many property investors dutifully pay their tax every year, without exploring the entitlements available to all Australian taxpayers. If unaware of your entitlements, you could lose out on thousands of dollars every year and the opportunity to significantly reduce your taxable income.

While many people are aware of depreciation schedules and that it is possible to claim benefits, more often than not, they don’t think these benefits apply to their property. You’ll be pleasantly surprised that by taking a few simple steps, you may be eligible to claim significant deductions against your investment property.

Most properties, regardless of their age, can offer investors substantial tax benefits, through a tax depreciation schedule. And, if you have never claimed depreciation, you could be eligible for a substantial back claim.

Always ensure you use a quantity surveyor to prepare your tax depreciation schedule. Quantity surveyors are qualified to identify and value capital and structural works, and know the legislation regarding plant and equipment. With a complete site survey and report, you’ll have a detailed, accurate schedule which will maximise your claim.

When seeking tax depreciation for your investment property, it’s important to remember that not all tax depreciation schedules are the same. Typically, tax depreciation schedules follow standard approach to claiming the available deductions, rather than undertaking an informed investigation, tailored to their client’s needs.
