How to minimise risk & maximise client outcomes

22 November & 3 December 2019

Register Me Series

The latest changes impacting on property investors
Key ATO risk areas for rental property owners
Ensure clients don’t miss out on deductions

Over the last couple of years the Government has introduced some major changes which impact on the tax position of property owners and investors.

 

The ATO has also raised concerns about the accuracy of tax returns lodged by rental property owners and has indicated that more reviews and audits will be conducted.


In this series, we take a closer look at the practical implications of the changes that apply specifically to property owners and investors. While some of the changes appear to be relatively straight forward on the surface, dig a bit deeper and the rules can become very complex very quickly.  We also look at the key risk areas identified by the ATO in relation to rental property owners and what clients need to do to comply with the tax rules and stay under the ATO radar, without missing out on any deductions that they are entitled to.


This is the perfect opportunity for you and your team to come up to speed with the latest developments and ensure that you are able to provide accurate and valuable advice to clients who might be impacted by these changes.
