What Is Depreciation?

As a building gets older, its structure and its removable assets undergo general wear and tear. That wear and tear results in the building declining in value. The decline in value is known as depreciation.

Thankfully, property investors can claim depreciation as a tax deduction resulting in increased tax refunds!
To claim a tax deduction for depreciation, investors need to get their hands on a depreciation schedule.

The purpose of a depreciation schedule is to outline the value of your client’s Division 40 and Division 43 assets as well as how much it has depreciated and will depreciate.

This will give them a clear idea of how much they can claim.

Understanding Depreciation Can Grow Your Real Estate Client Base

Knowledge is power when it comes down to boosting your competitive edge as a Real Estate Professional; you can help your clients understand the finer details of what a tax depreciation schedule can mean for their investment is just one way to make sure they get the most out of it.

Property investors are always looking for a way to maximise their returns. But 70% of investors don’t benefit from tax depreciation because they don’t know how to order an investment property depreciation schedule.

As a Real Estate Professional, we believe that you can increase investor awareness and increase your competitive edge by showing your clients how the property’s perceived value can be increased by purchasing a tax depreciation schedule.

It’s a win-win situation for all!

For example, an investor looking to purchase a brand new property for $465,000 with a potential weekly rental of $520 (appraised value) would generate a yearly rental income of $27,040.

Their yearly expenses amount to about $29,800.

So, without claiming depreciation, this investor is going to be running at a loss.

However, their Real Estate Agent accessed the Duo Tax depreciation calculator to help estimate what they could potentially claim before purchasing a depreciation schedule.

The investor’s year one estimate amounted to $11,140 with a tax refund of around $2,210 - meaning that the investor could go from a negative cash flow scenario to a positive cash flow scenario.
