  1. Essential Guide to Property Depreciation: What Property Owners Should Know Property depreciation is crucial in optimising financial returns in real estate investment. Understanding the concept, methods, and benefits of property depreciation is essential for property owners looking to maximise their investment and minimise tax liabilities. What does depreciation on property mean? Real estate depreciation occurs when property value decreases due to wear, age, and obsolescence. It can be claimed as a non-cash expense while filing taxes. What different methods are there for calculating depreciation? Straight-line depreciation: This assumes consistent depreciation over an asset`s useful life. You can compute it by deducting the estimated salvage value from the asset cost and dividing the output by the estimated useful life. Written-down value: Under this method, the depreciation rate is higher initially and decreases later. Depreciation is computed by multiplying the asset`s cost by the depreciation rate. The rate is one minus the residual value divided by the cost raised to the power of one divided by the estimated useful life.

  2. What are some common reasons for depreciation? Physical obsolescence: It reduces property value due to wear and tear and outdated features. Functional obsolescence: This occurs when a property`s layout or space is outdated or inadequate. Location: Incomplete or stalled construction increases depreciation, as does a location prone to waterlogging. Legal concerns: Legal disputes affect property depreciation. Issues with ownership title defects and environmental concerns cause sale delays and uncertainty. Income potential: Income-generating properties often endure more wear and tear, reducing their useful life. What are the exceptions to property depreciation? Emotions: Buyers may pay more for emotional significance. But not for investment or commercial properties focused on income generation. Land shortage: Land scarcity can counter property depreciation in high-demand, limited- supply areas. Despite physical or functional obsolescence, land value may rise.
