Rental Property Condition Report
Do you have an investment property? I always recommend having a report completed at;
Entry – when a new tenant enters the property
Exit – upon the tenant ending their lease and leaving the property
A comprehensive report lists all the information you need to know about the condition of your property. Our reports can assist the property owner if any disputes arise with the tenant regarding the property’s condition. Our report may also assist you if an insurance claim arises and you need proof regarding the pre and post-condition of the property.
Tax Depreciation Schedules
Save Money at Tax Time: With a comprehensive tax depreciation schedule in hand, investors can ensure that they are claiming all eligible deductions when lodging their tax returns. This meticulous approach minimizes the risk of overlooking valuable depreciation deductions, ultimately saving you money at tax time.
At Leading Building & Pest Inspections, we understand the profound impact that a tax depreciation schedule can have on your financial well-being as a property investor. Our team of qualified professionals possesses the expertise and knowledge to meticulously assess and document the depreciation of your property assets in accordance with ATO guidelines.
We employ a meticulous approach, carefully evaluating every aspect of your property to identify depreciable items and accurately estimate their diminishing value over time. Our comprehensive tax depreciation schedules, repaired by our quantity surveyor, are customized to meet your specific needs, ensuring that you maximize your deductions while remaining compliant with ATO regulations.
Pre Sale Inspections ( Pre-listing)
This service offers vendors seeking a way to accelerate their home sales. Why not have your home inspected and a report conducted and use this as part of your marketing process. Providing potential buyers with the peace of mind when purchasing your property and saving time in the process.
Pre Auction Reports
Looking at a property that is being sold via Auction? Are you aware that once the hammer goes down and ‘sold’ is shouted, it is too late to get a pre-building inspection report done. Go into the auction and have already completed a report and know what you are bidding on and the condition of the property. This will assist you with setting your budget and knowing what work (if any) needs to be completed.
Swimming Pool Safety Barrier Fence
Our stringent inspection process is conducted in accordance with relevant building codes and regulations, ensuring that the safety fence meets all mandatory requirements. If the barrier is found to be compliant and safe, we will issue a compliance certificate, providing you with the assurance that the swimming pool safety fence meets the necessary standards to protect young children.
Asbestos Inspections and Asbestos Testing
Thinking about renovating your property? Are you aware that it is estimated that 1/3 of all homes in Australia contain asbestos? We offer Asbestos Inspection Visual reports as well as Asbestos Testing.
