BMT Tax Depreciation are the trusted name in tax depreciation.

We are vastly experienced in preparing tax depreciation schedules for both commercial and residential properties Australia-wide.

On average, we find our clients $5,000 - $10,000 in depreciation deductions in the first full financial year claim for residential properties.

BMT Tax Depreciation Schedules are easier to follow, easier to update with replaced assets and last the ATO specified life of the property (40 years).

We work with you for the long term. We pride ourselves in developing successful relationships with all of our partners.

Hear from our clients

I have recommended BMT to two colleagues at work as well as my parents. I have had exceptionally high level of customer service from BMT staff. This is the third property report that I have requested and as I work in a busy environment I found the reminder emails regarding settlement date and details for items (serial numbers etc) very handy. Also last year a BMT staff member assisted me with a free depreciation approximation for a townhouse I was considering purchasing. This was done within the day. This exceeded my expectations of service.

Kylie, Bruce ACT

I have been associated with BMT for some 10 years and have always found all employees to be courteous, prompt and helpful. BMT's follow-ups are as regular as is necessary to achieve their client's ideals in the shortest possible timeframe. I would refer them to anyone without hesitation.

John, Armidale NSW

As a tax agent I've seen many such reports. It's good finally to receive one that's absolutely comprehensive, well summarised, and compliant with the law. By using your report rather than the report I'd previously commissioned there's the potential for additional tax savings in excess of $37,000. I'll certainly be referring my clients to you in future.

Both methods of depreciation

Includes both the prime cost and diminishing value methods of depreciation for each property.

Common property items

Includes common property items within strata or community title complexes such as lifts and swimming pools where legislation allows.

Split based on ownership

Can be split based on ownership percentages, this can lead to higher deductions for owners in earlier years for all residential properties.

Amend previous tax returns

Is logically and clearly structured to help you amend previous years’ tax returns to re-coup any unclaimed or missed depreciation benefits for up to two years.

Pro-rata calculated

Is pro-rata calculated for the first year of ownership based upon the property’s settlement date for all residential properties.

This means there’s often a lot of last minute activity to be completed within a short timeframe to ensure that your clients' claim is maximised at the end of each financial year.
