Why do I need a tax depreciation report?
As an owner of investment property in Tasmania, you are legally entitled to claim the depreciation of your investment property against your taxable income. A professionally prepared tax rental depreciation schedule can save you thousands of dollars in tax savings.
Did you know:
- all properties (new and secondhand) qualify for depreciation
- you can backdate your tax return if you have not claimed or maximised your entitlements!

What items can you claim in a depreciation schedule?
There are two types of allowances you can claim with a depreciation report.
- The Plant and Equipment assets. These are items like carpet ovens and dishwashers. These items wear and tear quicker, so you can claim them quicker. After the recent law changes, you can only claim these assets if they are brand new.
- The Division 43 Capital Works Deduction. This refers to the structure of the building and can be claimed at a flat rate of 2.5% per annum based on the original construction cost.

Why choose Washington Brown to prepare your Hobart Depreciation Report?
Washington Brown is an expert in tax depreciation reports for residential and commercial properties in Hobart and Tasmania. One of our qualified building inspectors will come to your property and assess the claimable assets which make up your property if your property needs an inspection.
Due to the property depreciation law changes in 2017, not all investments now need an inspection.
We will then prepare a detailed report on your property. You or your accountant will use this report when preparing your annual tax return.
Making sure you get the best advice about tax depreciation is our goal. We encourage you to read our FAQs about property tax depreciation schedules and our article about the role of a Quantity Surveyor.
