Tax Depreciation | 5 min read
How much does a tax depreciation schedule cost?
The cost of a tax depreciation schedule depends on the property type, complexity, available documents and whether an inspection or additional review is required.
What affects the fee
A straightforward residential investment property is usually simpler to assess than a commercial, mixed-use, strata or heavily renovated property.
The more complex the property, the more time may be needed to review construction details, improvements, plant, common property or fitout.
Why the cheapest report is not always best
A depreciation schedule is used across multiple years, so a low-cost report that misses eligible deductions can be poor value.
A stronger report should clearly separate capital works, plant and equipment where applicable, and give your accountant usable year-by-year information.
How to get an accurate quote
Provide the property address, purchase date, property type, renovation history and any plans or invoices available.

Common questions
Can I claim the cost of the report?
Many investors discuss claiming the report fee with their accountant, but the treatment should be confirmed for your own circumstances.
Is a more detailed report worth paying for?
Often, yes. The report may support depreciation claims across multiple years, so quality and clarity can matter more than the lowest upfront cost.
