Join thousands of Australian property investors who save hours every month and never miss a tax deduction.
Have questions? We're here to help you get started.
If they audit you and you can't produce the documents, deductions are disallowed and penalties can apply.
Records required from purchase to 5 years after sale. Missing even one category could mean a disallowed deduction.
If the ATO audits you and you can't produce the documents —
The deduction is disallowed. You pay the tax anyway. Penalties and interest apply on top. "I couldn't find the records" is not an acceptable excuse.
Formulas drift, versions multiply, assumptions go unchecked. Never fully confident your numbers are right.
Renovation invoices lost, settlement adjustments overlooked, depreciation never updated. Small gaps compound into large losses.
When the ATO asks - and they do - pulling it together takes weeks and still has gaps.

Handle multiple dwellings, shared costs, and higher reporting complexity with ease.
Why it mattersMaintain clarity & unify records across units and income streams.
