Report detail extracted

What made this report unique

These details show the report-specific review behind the headline figures, including the capital works basis, adjustment items and property history considered in the schedule.

Construction timing

Original premises recorded as circa 1960, with rental availability from 6 December 2022.

Building / structural improvements

Page 16 recorded a full building retrofit from offices to apartments, apportioned to entitlements and ownership, plus later cabinetry and stone benchtop works.

Adjusted Division 43 base

$445,482 after affected Division 40 items were considered for the public summary.

Part-year claim context

The first year was calculated on a 207-day pro-rata basis, so the first full-year claim is the cleaner comparison point.

Specific works captured

The schedule drew out the office-to-apartment retrofit and later cabinetry/benchtop works, making the claim basis more useful than a headline total alone.
