Property & Construction

From preparing budgets, to managing stamp duty and land tax liabilities throughout a property project’s lifecycle, and working through complex capital gains tax rules, we can help you navigate the unique complexities of the property and construction industry.

Setting up your structure

How you structure your property investment or development, whether as a trust, company, or partnership, can have significant tax implications. Based on your unique circumstances and business structure, we can advise on the most effective structure for asset protection, tax efficiency, and estate planning.

Understanding GST

Navigating GST rules requires specialised knowledge to ensure compliance and optimal tax outcomes. Our understanding of the margin scheme, which allows GST to be calculated on the difference between the sale price and the original purchase price of the property, ensures you get the advice you need.

Managing your capital investments

Capital investment in buildings, machinery and equipment can be significant, and needs to be depreciated over time. Choosing the correct depreciation method and schedule, whether diminishing value or prime cost, is essential to maximise your tax deductions and reflect the true value of your assets.

Claiming your allowances, exemptions and rollover provisions

Our calculation and reporting of capital allowance claims on certain types of expenditure, such as construction costs and fit-outs, as well as our understanding of specific exemptions and rollover provisions relevant to your industry, can positively impact the tax position of your property development or construction business.
