Hi,

Has anyone used the Self Inspect Depreciation Schedule advertised by Property Returns? see Link below. If so, what were your expereiences. What a re the risks of using a firm that uses photographs , pictures, against a person visiting the property?

I have had quotes as high as $800 in Victoria – which seems a littel steep for a IP Apartment just completed.

I have two brand new IPs and I need scedules done, and from what I gather (and I apologise to any surveyors etc..) from what I have seen (form examples off the internet) it is fairly straight forward schedule/calculation over time provided you have fully identified all the elements that comprise the make up of the IP. (Building – Plant – Equipment).

Any info appreciated
