Learn Six Crazy Facts About Depreciation
- Plus the Top 5 areas of Australia attracting investor buyers
If you have trouble getting your head around the concept of
depreciation of houses and apartments, you are not alone.

is depreciating in value, at a time when property values are rising

across the nation, according to the latest data from CoreLogic.
But, in simple terms, it’s the land content that appreciates in
value – while the structure and the fixtures and fittings
depreciate in value over time.
This reality is important for property investors, because they can
reduce the amount of tax they pay by many thousands of dollars per
year by claiming depreciation.
