Tax depreciation (or ‘property allowances’) are deductions that are often overlooked by owners and advisors, but can be a powerful tool to reduce your taxable income, slash your tax bill and put more cash in your pocket.
Industry surveys have found that upwards of 70% of property investors in Australia are not maximising their property depreciation claims – in many cases this is simply due to a lack of understanding of the tax system, and their rights as a property investor.
For those with property investments, whether residential or commercial, Business Wise can prepare an appropriate structure and depreciation schedule to serve as a vehicle for a compliant and maximised return.
To maximise the value for our clients we don’t just focus on standard deductions such as interest, rates and accountancy fees – but also assess often unknown or misunderstood areas of the tax code, including:
This depends on a number of factors, including purchase date, the property type and your financial situation, but many owners can claim between 5-20% of the purchase price as depreciable assets. We find many real estate investors have been missing out on significant deductions – and the extra cash!
