Tax Depreciation Schedules
Our ATO-registered tax depreciation schedules help property investors maximise allowable deductions. These reports cover capital works deductions for building structures and plant and equipment assets. We prepare detailed schedules compliant with Australian tax laws, ensuring investors claim all eligible depreciation benefits while maintaining audit-ready documentation.
Construction Cost Estimates
We provide accurate construction cost estimates for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Our estimates cover materials, labour, and overheads at various project stages from concept to completion. These estimates assist clients with budgeting, securing financing, and ensuring projects remain financially viable throughout their lifecycle.
Expert Witness Reports
Our expert witness services address construction disputes involving cost claims, contract breaches, and project delays. We prepare detailed reports for legal proceedings, tribunals, and arbitration cases. Our reports combine technical construction knowledge with financial analysis to support clients' positions in dispute resolution processes.
Sinking Fund Forecasts
We create sinking fund forecasts for body corporates to plan future maintenance and repairs. These forecasts project costs for common property maintenance over 10-year periods. Our reports help property managers and owners corporations budget effectively while minimising unexpected special levies.
Council DA Cost Estimates
Our council DA cost estimates include Section 94 contributions and development impact assessments. We prepare detailed cost analyses for planning approvals, helping developers understand infrastructure requirements. These estimates ensure compliance with local government regulations while supporting successful development applications.
