Property Investments Tax

Are you getting the most out of your property investments?

People from all walks of life invest in property. As property values move up and sometimes down, you may be considering how you can benefit from property investment. A professional tax accountant is essential to ensuring you get the most of your investment.

You might be considering;

• Straight forward investment in property
• Downsizing and cashing up for retirement
• Subdividing a large block
• Buying land to subdivide and sell for a profit or
• Redeveloping your existing property to build a duplex to live in one and sell the other.

All of these options have tax implications across income tax, GST, capital gains, duty and land taxes, and if not managed properly, they can be significant.

Having an expert guide you with advice from choosing the right property, structuring your funding correctly and maximising tax benefits will help you to realise the best returns.

How we can help:

• Advice on purchasing an investment property
• Holistic taxation strategies covering capital gains, GST, land and duty taxes as well as income tax
• Information on ownership and funding structures
• Revenue and expense forecasts
• Analysis of potential risks and returns
• Maximising depreciation claims
• Arranging quantity surveyor reports
• Periodic reviews to make sure you're getting the best returns

We are experts in the taxation intricacies of residential and commercial investments, subdivision and property development. We can help you to take advantage of rental returns, capital growth and tax deductions to get the most out of your property investment. This type of investment is an ongoing focus area for the ATO. The relevant taxation legislation can be complicated and continues to change, so it makes sense to have a professional tax accountant prepare your returns and know that everything is done to the letter.

If you already own an investment property, we can review funding and ownership structures as well as tax strategies to make it work harder for you.

If you are considering renovating or developing an existing property, there may be tax implications that could easily eat into your profits. We can help you to understand all of the tax consequences associated with property transactions and work out the most tax-effective strategy.

When making property investment decisions, forecasts are everything. If you are considering purchasing an investment property, we can offer advice on tax implications in the short and long term. We can prepare revenue and expense forecasts based on evidence as well as information on growth potential and risks. Armed with the right information, you will be able to make your investment decision with confidence.

By drawing on our experience and knowledge, and leveraging our industry connections, we can help you avoid any nasty surprises from the ATO and maximise the returns on your investments.
