What is a Quantity Surveyor?

Quantity Surveyors are recognised by the Australian Taxation office as appropriately qualified to assess and report construction costing and the depreciation of a building and its fixtures.

Maximising a depreciation claim requires a thorough understanding of the Income Tax Assessment Act, applicable income tax rulings, Case Law and specialist construction costing skills.  Engaging a Quantity Surveyor ensures you are minimising risk and claiming the maximum amount of deductions available.

In preparing a professional Capital Allowance and Tax Depreciation Report our qualified and highly experienced Quantity Surveyors use information provided by the client, their own expertise in estimating construction costing, and a detailed inspection of the property to identify every claimable item.  Extensive knowledge of relevant tax legislation, and years of experience interpreting such legislation means Capital Claims will always report the maximum depreciation available to ensure the investor claims every dollar to which they are entitled.
