Koste Chartered Quantity Surveyors and Asset Advisory works with people who own, manage, advise on or invest in property. Choose the description that fits you best and we will point you to the right service.
Property investors
If you own an investment property, a tax depreciation schedule prepared by a quantity surveyor sets out the plant and equipment and the building (capital works) deductions that may be available.
What you can claim depends on your circumstances, so speak to your accountant or registered tax agent about how a schedule applies to you.
Accountants and tax advisers
Koste works with accountants and other advisers who want to offer tax depreciation reports to their clients. Our Outsource Partners page explains how the partnership works and how to get started.
Commercial property owners
Commercial buildings have their own mix of structure, fit-out and plant. We prepare tax depreciation schedules for commercial property, and can also help with asset registers, lifecycle reports and capital expenditure forecasts.
Property developers
Developers often need cost information in a form that owners, buyers and advisers can use. Talk to us about the depreciation and asset advice that suits your project.
Property managers
Property managers keep buildings running and owners informed. An asset register and a lifecycle report give you a clear record of what is in a building, its condition and what is likely to need replacing.
Government and institutional clients
We provide asset registers, lifecycle reporting and capital expenditure forecasting to help public and institutional owners plan and budget for the buildings they hold. Contact us to discuss your requirements and how we can scope the work.

Strata managers
For strata schemes, an insurance replacement cost assessment helps check that the building is insured for an appropriate amount. Lifecycle reporting and capital expenditure forecasts can help committees plan major works.
Business owners
If your business owns the premises it operates from, or has invested in a fit-out, a commercial tax depreciation schedule may be relevant. We can also assess insurance replacement cost for your building.
Your accountant can confirm how depreciation applies to your business.
