My depreciation report was done quickly and efficiently. The staff at Washington Brown responded to my enquiries quickly, and were professional and helpful throughout the process. Highly recommend!
Becky Carline
The items in the report were more than I was hoping for, and in fact my capital works total depreciation amount will be 3 times what I paid for the report – in the first year alone. So, the overall experience with WB exceeded my expectations – professionalism and the works done faster than expected greatly contributed to this outcome.

Very fast and affordable

I have used WB for multiple depreciation reports. The reports are completed promptly with excellent detail. I have found the cost to be very competitive and great value for money. Couldn’t recommend more.

They were fast to quote, communicate necessary details to me and agreed to conduct the necessary in-person inspection within 4 business days at my address within an hour of Sydney. This made my selection easy.

Referral Marketing Report FAQs
A Depreciation Marketing Report provides indicative depreciation estimates for the different apartment types within a development. It helps potential purchasers understand the tax depreciation deductions they may be able to claim if they buy the property as an investment.
No. The figures are indicative only and are prepared for marketing and informational purposes. Purchasers will still need a final ATO-compliant Tax Depreciation Schedule after settlement before making a claim in their tax return. The sample report also makes this clear in the disclaimer and purchaser pages.
We typically require the development address, total construction cost, plans, specifications, strata details, estimated price list, and development logos. The more detail provided upfront, the more efficiently we can prepare the indicative estimates.
The report gives purchasers a clearer understanding of the potential after-tax benefits of the property. This can help investors assess cash flow, affordability and the overall investment value of an apartment before they purchase.
Not necessarily. We can usually prepare indicative estimates based on apartment types, layouts, price points, car spaces and inclusions. This allows purchasers to view relevant depreciation estimates without needing a separate report for every individual lot.
Yes. As part of the Marketing Report package, purchasers can access a discounted rate for their final Tax Depreciation Schedule after settlement.
In many cases, we already have most of the required development information from the developer. Whether a final inspection is required will depend on the property, available documentation and the level of detail needed to prepare the final ATO-compliant schedule.
The figures are professionally prepared estimates based on the information available at the time, including plans, specifications, schedules and cost information. Final deductions may vary depending on settlement date, final construction costs, completed specifications, ownership structure and tax legislation.
Yes. The report can be prepared with development-specific details, apartment types, purchaser call-to-actions and discount information, making it easy to include in your sales and marketing material.
Turnaround depends on the size of the development and how complete the information is when provided. Once we have the required documentation, we can confirm the expected timeframe before commencing.
