Spare us from T Budget blues

he New South Wales Government should not turn to the property market to rescue the upcoming State Budget, according to the Real Estate Institute of New South Wales.

“The recent Federal Budget has put pressure on the NSW Budget, and Premier Mike Baird should not follow the lead of previous governments who have used the property market to raise additional revenue,” said REINSW President Malcolm Gunning (pictured).

“The property market is just showing signs of recovery and not all areas are enjoying growth.

Property consumers, and in particular first homebuyers, should not sit back and let this happen.

“The State Government must not increase land tax and stamp duty to plug budget holes. We advocate for a broadening of the GST tax base and an increase in the GST rate. This should replace the revenue losses from the abolition of the discriminatory and inefficient state taxes.

Mr Gunning said he does not support an increase in the GST to fund inefficiencies in Canberra.

“We have called on other state property institutes, associations and franchisors to voice their support for tax reform and we have already received backing,” Mr Gunning said.

“For too long the property market has been the State Government’s cash cow and property consumers are now saying enough is enough.

“Already NSW can be expected to be at least $548 million over budget in transfer stamp duty collections alone for 2013-14.”

The State Budget will be handed down next month. It will be the first since Premier Barry O’Farrell was replaced by Mike Baird back in April.

Don’t miss out on deductions T

he Australian Taxation Office (ATO) recently released statistics relating to claims made by Australian property investors for the 2011-2012 income year.

Owners of rental properties are entitled to a number of deductions when they complete their annual income tax assessment.

Some of the deductions claimed by investors in 2011-2012 included body corporate fees, agent fees and commissions, council rates, borrowing expenses, interest on loans, repairs and maintenance, gardening expenses, pest control, capital works deductions and plant depreciation.

According to the Managing Director of BMT Tax Depreciation Bradley Beer, two types of deductions available to property investors which continue to be missed are capital works deductions and plant and equipment depreciation.

Approximately 2.5 million property investors claimed deductions in the 2011-2012 income year.

Of these investors, just over one million received an average capital works deduction of $2,029 while just over 1.7 million investors claimed an average deduction of $1,139 for plant and equipment depreciation in the 2011-2012 income year.

“A total depreciation claim of $3,168 on average is well below the typical claim found for resi-

dential investors who request a BMT Tax Depreciation Schedule.

Data collected from tens of thousands of depreciation schedules prepared by BMT Tax Depreciation suggests the average claim should be around $10,100 in the first full financial year and $7,350 per year on average over the first 10 years of owning a property,” Mr Beer said.

Mr Beer advised that not all investment property owners are eligible to claim capital works deductions due to ATO restrictions placed on a property based on the construction commencement date. However, investors can still claim substantial depreciation deductions for plant and equipment items regardless of their property’s age.

“We’re continuing to see a trend that suggests the owners of older properties don’t claim the maximum capital works deductions available. Older properties have often had renovations completed.

Even work completed by a previous owner of the property can be claimed as a capital works deduction by the current owner,” he said.

ATO legislation states that the owner of any residential investment property can only claim capital works deductions if construction commenced after the 18th of July 1985. Depreciation of plant and equipment is not limited by age, it is the condition and the quality of each item which contributes to the depreciable amount.

“We are also seeing investors miss out on deductions when they self-assess claims or estimate costs in their investment property based on their own judgement,” Mr Beer said.

Calculating depreciation for an investment property is a complicated process and expert advice is needed.

Orchard Hills

Rural bliss Orchard Hills is one of the most unique parts of the Penrith region, and is home to less than 2,000 people

16

Western Property Magazine

T

he location of Orchard Hills, situated in the centre of the Penrith Local Government Area, suggests the area would be a highly built up, populated suburb but this couldn’t be further from the truth.

The suburb, though large in size, is home to less than 2,000 people and is almost entirely of rural character.

Small housing areas, with most homes located on blocks of at least one acre, are nestled between rolling hills, vineyards and vast spaces dedicated to produce farming, much like the area has been for most of its history.

Orchard Hills sits on land formerly known as ‘Frogmore’, an estate gifted to Mary Putland, the daughter of William Bligh, by Governor Phillip King in 1806.

Frogmore grew in size over the

@wwpenrith

2748 years and was managed by Major George Druitt for much of its time.

Adjoining Frogmore was the estate of York, owned by the York family, which was also part of the land Orchard Hills sits on.

The York estate was subdivided in the 1880’s and sold for orchards and vineyards.

By the early 1900’s a community had been well established, though did not go by any specific name, and both the Mount Hope Methodist Church (1904) and the York Estate Public School (1910) were built – both are still standing today, though the school is called Orchard Hills Public School.

On October 17, 1910, the community met together to decide on a formal name for their suburb, deciding on Orchard Hills.

A number of housing areas have been built in Orchard Hills since, some not even five-years-old, and with that has come the development of a number of schools and churches.

Orchard Hills is bordered by the Northern Road in the west and Caddens Road in the north but it is the other two borders that give the area a unique quality.

In the east, the suburb is bordered by the South Creek corridor and in the south, it is bordered by the Orchard Hills Defence Facility, which encompasses a large area of bushland.

These two borders have resulted in an abundance of wildlife in the area, including kangaroos and echidnas.

Agriculture is important in Orchard Hills. It makes a considerable contribution to the Sydney market of table grapes and stone fruits. The optimum size of these farms are between 5-7 hectares.

The reddish clay loams of Orchard Hills are used for grape growing. Table muscats were produced by 60 growers over 150 hectares in 1987. The production of table grapes is in decline.

Orchard Hills is located in the State Government Electorate of Mulgoa.

It is located in the Federal Government Electorate of Lindsay and McMahon.

There is no doubt that Orchard Hills is one of the most exclusive parts of the Penrith Local Government Area. It provides rural bliss on the doorstep of the thriving city of Penrith.

An amazing lifestyle Paul Dukes paul@dukesestateagents.com.au

the agent says Next week: We look at another great suburb in the Penrith LGA

B

eing born and bred in Penrith I have seen so many changes in these years. Orchard Hills was always one of the most amazing farming areas in the district.

Many old homes established in the sparse area are still there today. Seeing the transition from rural to its new development was enjoyable as the country charm

has remained with farming in various areas still done today.

Acreage living, acre blocks and now even some areas under the one acre size still makes Orchard Hills a great place to live. During its development the growth, including schools, shops, doctors and medical plus close proximity to TAFE and UWS has been done to ensure the countryside

feel remained and yet so close to Penrith with all its amenities.

Orchard Hills has become one of the district’s most desirable places to live. Views and location has been a big factor and that’s why homes sell quickly in Orchard Hills. Family living has grown with generations deciding to stay in the area and enjoy the amazing lifestyle.

Bits&Pieces

Darling Square gets approved

@wwpenrith

Penrith Council is considering an application for the subdivision of land at 276 Caddens Road, Claremont Meadows. The subdivision would create 27 residential lots and two residue lots that would be dedicated as public reserves. The value of the works proposed is $1.3 million.

In a boost for the Penrith CBD, a shop owner wants to open a new store on Henry Street. The applicant wants to open a new Thai Massage Shop at 7/92-112 Henry Street. Penrith Council and the Penrith CBD Corporation have been working hard to attract new businesses to the Penrith CBD. Council has received a development application for a new apartment precinct in St Marys. Worth over $70 million, the applicant wants to knock down the existing structures at 12 Carson Lane St Marys and construct four eight-storey residential flats.

It would include two levels of basement parking as well as landscaping.

Ray White Rural Sydney recorded a massive sale of $15m under the hammer at an inhouse auction last Friday (pictured).

Offered for the first time since 1920, the property, Foxlow, Bungendore, is a country estate sitting on around 18.5 acres and includes an architect designed single-storey homestead, extensive gravel drive with landscaped gardens, a tennis

court and historic outbuilding. Located 20 minutes from Queanbeyan and 40 minutes from Canberra airport, the property also features 10km double frontage to Molonglo River, 50 main paddocks, over 70 stock dams and runs 30,000 DSE of sheep or cattle. The property was marketed through Terry Brennan and Bruce Gunning at Ray White Rural Sydney.

NSW Deputy Premier Andrew Stoner and Planning Minister Pru Goward have welcomed approval for the first three stages of the $1 billion-plus plan to revitalise the southern end of Darling Harbour into a new city neighbourhood, Darling Square.

The Minister announced that approval has been given for the construction of: • Three towers (ranging from eight to 40 storeys high), above a five-storey podium, comprising 538 residential apartments, 1,870m2 of non-residential floorspace, 399 residential car parking spaces and improvements to public spaces • A 20 storey building comprising 227 student accommodation apartments • An 8-12 storey mixed-use development with ground floor retail, more than 22,000m2 of commercial office space and a 400 space public car park and 75 motorcycle spaces.
