Any update on this? From my reading I don’t think this final answer is correct and that indeed you can claim depreciation of building construction costs for overseas property. I’m looking into this currently for my 2 properties in the UK, however the only surveyor I have found who offer a tax depreciation schedule to Australian rules for overseas property is Washington Brown. They seem through, however are expensive at around $2000 per property depreciation schedule, which is a lot more than I wanted to pay!
Anyone have any information or sources?
