I have a quick question and wandering if the more experiences can help me out here ..
My wife and I own a IP ( 2 bedroom apartment in building > 25 years old ). When we moved in 5 years ago we upgraded just about every fixture in it. We lived in it for 3 years before then going overseas and renting it out.
Costs of renovations include the following :
New Kitchen inc. appliances : $7,500
Hardwood flooring : $7,000
Bathroom : $3,000
Light fixtures : $1,200
Door / Garage Locks : $600
What we have just realised is that we do not have a tax depreciation schedule and I am wandering if it's worth spending the $660 to have a quantity surveyor done one to include in this years tax return.
Appreciate advise ...
