Capital Allowance and Tax Depreciation Schedules are your key, as a Property Investor, to reducing your tax payable or increasing your tax refund. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) allows investment property Owners to claim a tax deduction on the fair wear and tear on an investment property and it’s fittings.

Insuring a strata titled property, or any property for that matter, is not as simple as using the construction cost. No matter the original construction cost, to be appropriately insured for an insurable event the estimate must include; escalation, demolition / removal of debris, re-design fees and application fees. These are all significant costs over and above the construction cost.

It is important to be appropriately insured, especially in this day and age when the “averaging clause” is typical in most policies. The averaging clause protects the Insurer by only paying on an insurance claim the percentage of the total replacement if the Insurer can prove that the site was being under insured. It is important to leave this exercise to the experts!

As per the Body Corporate and Community Management regulations, a Sinking Fund budget must be prepared by an appropriately qualified professional like us at Gleeson Quantity Surveyors.

Sinking Funds allow for raising a reasonable capital amount from levy contributions to provide for necessary and reasonable spending by the Body Corporate to maintain and replace capital items. Allowances must be made for the current financial year, and also to reserve an amount to meet likely spending for at least the next nine [9] years into the future. Gleeson Quantity Surveyors Sinking Fund Forecasts allow for (in accordance with the regulations):

1. Likely spending of a capital or non-recurrent nature.
2. Replacement of major capital items.
3. Other costs that should reasonably be met from capital.

Australia has a well known ageing population. This has resulted in an increasing amount of retirement villages, communities and resorts across the country. Gleeson Quantity Surveyors work with many scheme operators, large and small, to ensure their capital replacement fund and maintenance reserve fund is being appropriately managed in accordance with the Retirement Villages Act 1999.
