This presentation provides tips on using property depreciation to boost cash flow through tax savings. It discusses 9 tips, including claiming higher depreciation for tall buildings with multiple bedrooms, renovations, overseas properties, items under $300 that can be fully written off, low value pools, furniture, differences for commercial properties, benefits for super funds, claiming more depreciation for older properties, and potentially scrapping kitchens and bathrooms for deductions. The presentation aims to help investors maximize their depreciation claims and pay less tax.
