Q: DO I NEED A TAX DEPRECIATION SCHEDULE FROM A QUANTITY SURVEYOR?
Yes. The ATO requires that your Depreciation Schedule is prepared by a qualified and registered Quantity Surveyor, and registered Tax Agent.

Q: WHAT IS A TAX DEPRECIATION SCHEDULE?
A Tax Depreciation Schedule can help you pay less tax. The amount your Depreciation Schedule claims, effectively reduces your taxable income, keeping more dollars in your pocket.

Q: THE PURCHASE PRICE OF MY INVESTMENT PROPERTY WAS LESS THAN $500K, DO I STILL REQUIRE A TAX DEPRECIATION SCHEDULE?
Yes. If you have an investment property irrelevant of the purchase price a Tax Depreciation Schedule is required if you wish to claim an offset to your taxable income.

Q: MY PROPERTY HAS ONLY JUST BECOME TENANTED, CAN I CLAIM DEPRECIATION?
Yes. Your Tax Depreciation Schedule commences the date the purchase was settled.
