By property | October 26, 2008

Construction costs are a big issue, with confusion common about what items can be depreciated and what is a capital works deduction of 2.5 per cent a year. Deductions can be claimed for the decline in value of some types of depreciating assets in residential rental properties, for example curtains, blinds, dishwashers, refrigerators, stoves, television sets and hot water systems. *CONVEYANCING costs, which instead form part of the cost base. *TRAVEL expenses where the main purpose of the trip is a holiday and the property inspection is incidental to that. *EXPENSES relating to private use of the property. *INTEREST on any private portion of a loan that is used for both investing and private purposes. Depreciation schedules have been around for a while but not well advertised. It’s amazing what the quantity surveyors find that can be depreciated.
