IP to PPOR to IP. Depreciation schedule

[MelbInvestor]

Hi
I bought this display home in 1998. It remained a display home for 2 years. When the display village closed in 2000, I moved into the house and it became my PPOR.
From 1998 to 2000, it was an IP for me and I had a depreciation schedule provided by the builder, which I used for tax.
From 2000 to Oct 2013, it was my PPOR.
I moved out on Oct 2013 and since then it has been on rent.
For 2014 tax (which I am currently working on), do I have to do another depreciation schedule ? The major works on the property between 2000 and 2013 has been : pergola added, roller shutters, replacing carperts with floating timber, new paints.

thanks alot.

Happy Monday, MelbInvestor!

No, you can continue to use the same depreciation schedule. The works that you've performed yourself can be depreciated individually because you'll have the costs and dates completed/installed. You could, of course, go to a QS to get a new depreciation schedule that might get you a better result but that could be something of a gamble, given that what you've already got is serviceable.
