BMT schedules and reports last the property’s lifetime
A BMT Depreciation Report last the full ATO specified forty years. This means that you won’t need to come back for another schedule. Some providers offer schedules with a shorter lifespan such as 10, 15 or even 20 years which will require you to order a second schedule down the track, meaning ordering a BMT report may save you additional expenses in the long run.

Before going through with a tax depreciation schedule, our staff will always assess investors’ individual circumstances to determine whether ordering a BMT Depreciation Report will be worthwhile.
A BMT Depreciation Report is comprehensive
A BMT Tax Depreciation Report covers all tax deductions available over the lifetime of the property, broken down into plant and equipment deductions and capital works allowance.
BMT schedules and depreciation reports also outline various methods of claiming depreciation so you can make informed decisions about which method will best suit your investment strategy.
BMT Depreciation Reports show partial year calculations and are backdated to the settlement date. This allows you to maximise your claim in the first partial year and in the case where the property was lived in for part of the financial year.
BMT can also provide split depreciation reports for multiple owners based on each owner’s percentage of ownership for each asset. This will increase the number of assets which you can claim an immediate write-off or low-value pooling for, meaning claims are accelerated and the investor receives increased deductions in the earlier years of ownership.

BMT don’t offer referral fees

Some depreciation providers buy referrals from accountants and property professionals by offering a cash reward for jobs. We believe that doing so jeopardises the quality of the service and product.
