Order a depreciation report for your rental property
If you own an investment property, a professionally prepared tax depreciation report can significantly increase your deductions — often this year and for many years into the future.
A depreciation report allows us to:
- maximise your current tax refund, and
- ensure you continue claiming the correct deductions in future years.
How the process works
- You complete an application form with your chosen provider
- A quantity surveyor prepares an ATO‑compliant depreciation report
- Once the report is completed, we include it in your tax return
The report can take some time to process.
We can add it to your tax return once it’s completed, even if this is after you’ve started the tax process.
