Estimator vs. Quantity Surveyor: What’s the Difference? Here's what you need to know about the distinctive roles, responsibilities, and skills of an Estimator and Quantity Surveyor. 👷♂️ Estimator A construction cost estimator’s primary duty is to provide initial cost estimations that help builders and subcontractors secure tenders. 👷♂️ Quantity Surveyor Quantity surveyors are qualified construction professionals who serve as advisors within the industry. They are also one of the few professionals recognised by the Australian Tax Office as qualified tax depreciation experts. 📄 The Differences That Set Them Apart While estimators and quantity surveyors share similarities, there are key differences. • Projects they handle: Quantity surveyors often deal with larger, more complex projects, especially in the public and private sectors. Estimators, on the other hand, are more commonly engaged with residential and smaller commercial projects. • Their priorities: Construction estimators focus on providing accurate and timely cost estimations to win tenders. Quantity surveyors prioritise providing the BOQ (Bill of Quantities) and monitoring construction costs throughout the project lifecycle. • Their roles: Quantity surveyors provide support before, during, and after a construction project. Conversely, estimators are mainly involved before a project begins, during the tendering phase. • Tax depreciation: Quantity surveyors are qualified to provide depreciation schedules; estimators aren’t. Knowing the right person for your specific needs can help you get the best advice for your investment property.

The Tax Depreciation Guide to Duplex Houses 🏘 What Is a Duplex House? A duplex house is a single property on one block of land divided into two separate residences. The two individual homes are under one roof, but generally, there are different occupants living in each unit. 💲 Potential Benefits of Investing in a Duplex House 1. Double the rental income 2. Flexibility 3. No need to subdivide 4. Depreciation deductions 📉 Potential Risks Associated With Investing in a Duplex House 1. Higher maintenance costs 2. Living with your tenants Owners of duplex houses can benefit from higher tax depreciation as you can claim on both properties if they’re rented out. Duplexes often have more space and utilise more land, and importantly, they include double the amount of plant and equipment, allowing for increased depreciation claims on each self-contained unit.

First Home Buyer Investment Property: Is It a Good Idea? 🏡 Buying a Home to Live In For many Australians, buying a home to live in represents fulfilling the long-held “Australian dream” of home ownership. 1. Fulfils the “Australian Dream” of Home Ownership 2. More Emotional Fulfilment and Stability 3. Mortgage Payments Build Equity You Keep 4. Government Grants and Stamp Duty Concessions 🏠 Buying an Investment Property Purchasing an investment property as your first home has become an increasingly popular route for getting started in Australian real estate. The strategy of “rentvesting” allows you to invest in property and generate rental income while continuing to rent affordably in the area you want to live in. 1. Renting Where You Want While Generating Rental Income 2. Tax Benefits 3. Potential to Access More Affordable Properties to Get Started So, Should You Occupy or Go the Property Investment Route? Determining if your first home should be a residence for yourself or an investment comes down to weighing several personal and property market factors: ❓ Can you afford properties in areas you want to live in? ❓ Will renting impact your lifestyle or stability? ❓ Do you plan to move to other areas in the near future? ❓ What are the price growth projections in each area? Deciding whether to buy a home to live in or an investment property depends on your personal preferences and financial capacity.
