Sydney, 10 September 2013 – CBRE has recruited leading property and tax depreciation experts around the country to spearhead the official launch of its new Capital Allowances business headed by Neale Scott.
After an extensive national recruitment campaign, Adam Arden and Derek Linton have joined the team as Directors, based in Perth and Brisbane respectively. Both have over 15 years’ experience in the field of property depreciation.
Dion Lange has meanwhile joined the team as an Associate Director in Sydney, while Andy Lim has been recruited as a Senior Quantity Surveyor based in CBRE’s Mulgrave office in Victoria.
The team will focus on preparing depreciation schedules on new acquisitions, construction projects, refurbishments, demolitions, book value assessments and insurance reinstatement cost assessments while assisting CBRE agents with the preparation of indicative depreciation schedules for new sales campaigns.
“The launch of the Capital Allowances team and these senior appointments in Perth, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney dovetails with our strategy to provide an all-encompassing service offering for our clients,” said CBRE President & CEO, Australia & New Zealand, Tom Southern.
“We see this service providing significant benefits to CBRE clients and we are focused on recruiting leading industry professionals around the country to expand our reach and platform.”
Mr Scott said the team would augment the services currently provided by other CBRE business lines by undertaking free of charge preliminary appraisals of clients’ existing depreciation schedules and capital expenditure.
“This will allow us to identify areas where we believe there may be scope to claim additional allowances or increase the annual rate of deductions,” Mr Scott said.
