Absolutely, the fee is 100% tax-deductible, minimal (and a one-off fee) and the ongoing benefits, year-on-year can include thousands of dollars in tax write-offs.

Do I need a depreciation schedule every year?
No, if done correctly.

How do I set up a depreciation schedule for a rental property?

When should I get a depreciation schedule?
In short, whilst it is front of mind and without delay.
As soon as you become a property investor of an income-producing property. It is always best to order your tax depreciation schedule straight away. The ramifications of forgetting may cost the property investor anywhere around $10,000 in forfeited claims.


How do I calculate depreciation on my rental property in Australia?
