Most commercial property owners and investors, who incur capital expenditure on a property, can claim tax relief in the form of Capital Allowances. Davis Langdon Crosher & James has analysed over 20,000 properties and secured tax savings of more than R1.5 billion on behalf of clients.  

Capital Allowances is a complex subject  requiring an understanding of construction costs, Capital Allowances legislation, property and land valuation, and Inland Revenue and Valuation Office Agency procedures. Our experience shows that many property owners and investors lose considerable sums each year as a direct result of lost or under-claimed allowances.

Although fixed plant occurs in every commercial building, it has never been defined in  legislation, so a successful outcome depends on the skills of the individual involved in identifying and valuing all relevant expenditure, including “on-costs” applicable to the particular building design and usage. No two buildings are ever the same for tax purposes!
