010 | Tax Depreciation (Case Study)

Here are the Case Studies mentioned in Episode 010 | Tax Depreciation of The Property Couch:

Tax Depreciation Case Study 1:

A $600,000 – $700,000 period home with a rental income of $22,880 per annum

An investor owns a period home purchased for between $600,000 and $700,000 with a rental income of $440 per week.
Expenses for their property such as interest, rates and management fees totaled to $40,950. A depreciation schedule from specialist Quantity Surveyors BMT Tax Depreciation found the investor would be entitled to claim $9,880 in depreciation in the first financial year. By claiming depreciation deductions, BMT was able to help the investor to turn their negative cash flow into a more positive one, reducing the costs involved in holding the property by $3,655.
The following scenario shows the investors cash flow with and without the depreciation claim:
