3D Virtual Tours, Marketing

Virtual Tours leave an impression on Property ...

3D Virtual Tours are fast becoming a staple of marketing a property. Aside from complimenting a new climate of ‘social distancing’, providing a contactless, interactive experience of a property over photos alone is the natural progression in a world where marketing has become so centered on having an impressive online presence.

A study by REA in April 2020 noted that 61% of viewers feel that properties with digital inspections make a listing feel more ‘premium’, and 62% felt more positively about the listing agent.

Virtual Display Villages

Asset Reports has been proud to work with home builders to bring their entire suite of display homes to life. Even amid the ease of restrictions, the Virtual Tours continue to be a valuable tool allowing viewers to get a sense of the size, scale and layout of the designs on offer in preparation for taking advantage of the new government incentives for building new properties.

Tax Depreciation in a Brand New Apartment

In the lead up to tax time, we wanted to shed some light on what exactly Depreciation is and how it can save investors thousands in tax deductions. We prepared this interactive model to show exactly what can be depreciated in an investment property.

As an investment property ages the value of the materials used to build it decrease in value, this loss in value can be claimed as a deduction at tax time. Blue labelled items come under Capital Works (Division 43), or construction of the property, which are depreciable over 40 years.

Virtual tours help agents get buyers through ...

A high-resolution, 360-degree virtual tour could be one of the key ways agents look to show potential buyers a property, following the ban on public open homes and auctions from midnight, Wednesday March 25.

Camera services and agents have reported a spike in inquiries for virtual tours of property listings in the past week to fill the void left by government-mandated social distancing measures.

Asset Reports partner Tom Williams said high-quality, 360-degree views of listed properties were an invaluable tool for vendors and buyers alike.

“It’s helping [agents] get the listing and helping them engage the right buyer,” Mr Williams said.

“I’ve seen easily a 50 to 60 per cent increase in more business than the week prior. We’ve doubled our bookings.

7 Tax Time Tips for Investment Properties

7 Tax Time Tips for Investment Properties

EOFY might be over but tax time is still in full swing!

Here are some tax tips for Rental Properties provided by The Tax Institute:

  1. Keep all your receipts to justify the deductions that are being claimed. An absence of such receipts will make life very difficult if an audit calls for proof of the expense. 

  2. The property must either be rented, or “genuinely available" for rental in the income year for which a deduction is claimed. If you use the property for private purposes, you cannot claim expenses.
