Investment Property Tax & Advice

At El Masri Accounting Services, we specialise in tax returns and tailored tax advice for rental property owners and those looking to purchase an investment property. Whether you’re buying your first rental property or managing an established portfolio, we help you develop tax strategies suited to your circumstances. Our advice covers rental income, allowable deductions, ownership structures, gearing and capital gains tax, helping you understand the tax implications before you buy, while you own and when you sell.

What we help you with

• Rental income & allowable deductions
• Ownership structures
• Negative & positive gearing
• Capital gains tax — before you buy, while you own, when you sell

Tax depreciation schedules

We also assist you in obtaining a tax depreciation schedule from a qualified quantity surveyor to help identify the deductions available for your investment property. Depending on your circumstances, these may include deductions for eligible building costs, renovations and depreciating assets. Older properties may also have eligible improvements or assets, so it is worth checking rather than relying on the property’s age alone. We review the report alongside your circumstances to help you claim the deductions you’re entitled to.

Gearing, explained properly

Successful property investing starts with a clear strategy. We help you understand the tax and cash-flow implications of negative and positive gearing, and how these fit with your circumstances and long-term goals. Our focus is on helping you claim the deductions you’re entitled to, plan ahead and make informed decisions—not simply chase a tax deduction. Whether you’re starting out or expanding your property portfolio, we provide practical tax advice to support you along the way.
