Online Services

My thoughts and opinions are shared in this BMT QS review. These quantity and tax depreciation surveyors in Australia help create reports for property investors, and have done so for years.

I’ve bought and sold numerous investment Australian properties. Getting the full tax deductions is absolutely paramount in my opinion, especially if you’re using the old negative gearing strategy of losing money every month. I always recommending investing in the best services.

I started this blog in 2011, and it has now inspired thousands of Australians to create true passive income. Investing in real estate is great, but it takes 20 to 30 years to actually retire. I found a strategy that has helped me semi-retire much sooner, in my early 30’s in fact. But more on that later.

Let’s start…

BMT Australia Review

These guys are fundamentally quantity surveyors / tax depreciators that help you potentially get more ATO deductions. How they’ll work is that they will go into your investment property and complete an inspection.

Upon the completion of that inspection (it takes 1 to 2 hours) they’ll take a day or so to write up a report, all for a cost of less than $1,000. Your accountant then can use this same report for years to come. Very handy to have!

There are some cheaper online versions, but you really want the professionals to come into your place. This is because you’ll save money (through further deductions) in the long run. So I do recommend one of the top quantity surveyors in Australia such as BMT who have great reviews online. In fact – I see them as #1 in the industry.

BMT provides a helpful cost calculator. They have offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. They do cover some regional areas too, and the Gold Coast is certainly covered. I recently found that they have offices in Tasmania (Hobart) and the Northern Territory (Darwin) as well!

Feedback on BMT Tax Depreciators

The feedback from existing customers of BMT is almost always great. Their tax depreciation reports are very comprehensive. Those who have great experiences don’t actually share their experiences online. The very few that have a bad experience are quick to rush and tell the internet through a bad review.

Now, there is a negative to using their services, and I had to highlight this one to make it a fair review on BMT. The main downside is the cost. They aren’t the cheapest pricing out there for Australian property investors. Their fees are a little more based on the skill-set and 2 decades of experience that they bring to the table. When you’re shopping around, you shouldn’t decide based on price, but experience.

Over all, most people will be more than satisfied with the report, especially your accountant. Yes – they make it easy for your accountant to go through and allocate the deductions. You’ll get both a digital and physical copy as well. Plus, you don’t have to be present to get the inspection done, you just need to organize access with your property manager. Handy if you’re an interstate investor!

Actually retiring early through assets

Chances are that you’ve bought an investment property or two with the ambition of an early retirement. I praise you for that, since that’s a great goal to have. It also takes 20 to 30 years to retire through real estate investing in Australia, and that’s too slow for most people.

You’re probably using the negative gearing strategy. That is – you can only make money in a rising market. The Australian property market is in DECLINE. So, you’re counting on rising property prices, meaning you’ve got a 1 in 3 chance of making money, since a side ways and declining market loses money. And right now, the timing is terrible.

It’s always a good time to review your investment strategy. The old ‘buy and hold’ for a million years idea is unlikely to be effective, especially in a housing crash. It’s time for a better system that is working for the 21st century. I’d rather cash-flow every single week. I’m sure you’d agree.

A semi-passive income before age 40

I choose to build assets. Digital assets that make me an income month after month online. I had no prior skills. My returns are significantly higher than real estate, and very much cashflow driven. I want more income going into my bank account every week than what goes out of the bank account. I hope you’re following here. This is true investing and assets that Robert Kiyosaki talks about.

Luckily, not too long ago, I found a way. It’s a way that thousands of Australians have chosen to go down as well. It’s an opportunity to build your own business online. Not Amway. Not selling to friends or family. Nothing like that. It’s about building your own digital assets which pay you month after month, potentially helping you move towards an early retirement.

It worked for me, as it’s worked for many others, and it can work for you too. That is – if you’re prepared to work, invest some capital, stay committed and work through the challenges. It’s not easy, nor is it hard either. I can assure you, through my own results and lifestyle, that it’s absolutely worth it!

BMT Quantity Surveyors Summary

These guys are good. Seriously good. BMT certainly look after Australians. It’s clear that they’ve been here for a while, and will be here for a lot longer too. Much like me – I started this blog years ago, and I’ll still be here in 10 years enjoying a semi-passive income on the internet.

It’s certainly worth while to call their team. If you’re looking at Washington Brown vs BMT, then I have also reviewed their main competitor right here. Both are actually really good services, and there’s not much difference. I guess like comparing Holdens and Fords. Same same, but a little different.

Just remember – it’s going to take an awfully long time to actually retire and stop the frustrating commutes into work and back through property investing. There is a better way, and I found it! Best of all – I’ve shared this with thousands of Australians.

Let’s get started

The opportunity is alive and well. The doors are fully open, and ready for those that are resourceful.

I’m looking for the following people now:

• Those that are ready, prepared and committed to work hard
• Families in Australia aged between 25 and 65 with ambition
• People that want to retire a lot sooner than at age 175…….. 🙂
• Individuals that have been waiting for the right opportunity

This is it. Plus – I have results. It’s worked for me, hundreds of others, and it has the potential to work for you. I’m not looking for tyre-kickers. This is no get-rich-quick deal. I’m looking for the skilled, talented and the creative types with realistic expectations. Most importantly – you need to have the drive to make great things happen.

This won’t be easy – but absolutely it’s worth it. Feel free to get in touch here, and join the thousands of fellow Australians that have started already. I really do look forward to hearing from you.

Today I’m going to provide this Yes Digital review. I’ll examine this SEO, Facebook and digital marketing agency based in Brisbane, Australia, and allow you to make an informed decision.

I started this blog many years ago, and today I still continue to write. My words have been read by tens of thousands of Australians. I’m praised frequently for my no BS and zero sugar coating style. I hope you find value in this one.

Evaluating Yes Digital

It’s true that there’s an absolute flood of digital marketing agencies in Australia. Heck – you’re probably getting called multiple times per month. There’s claims that seem outrageous, and results that are questionable. It’s easy to either be skeptical, or simply decline the offers.

Fact: 90% of digital marketing agencies in Australia have absolutely no idea what they are doing, and do NOT return a positive ROAS for their clients. This is because of the low barrier to entry. Any university kid could start a business tomorrow and call themselves a ‘digital marketing specialist‘ and pick up 10 clients for $1,000 per month, and use business owners to ‘learn the process’. Trust me, this happens regularly. This has created a bad reputation for digital marketing agencies globally.

When researching, it appears that Yes Digital is in the other 10%. That is, they actually work to get proper results for their clients. They aren’t into the ‘churn and burn’ business model. The reviews for Yes Digital on Google and Facebook really do back this up.

Upsides

I always like to pull apart companies. This way I can evaluate flaws, and quite often, these same companies have used my blog to improve their services and reputation.

Here’s what I liked:

• They didn’t start up yesterday, they have been doing this a few years
• They’re properly partnered with Shopify, Google, Facebook & others
• More than 10 million dollars has been placed towards client ad spend
• Close to 40 team members in Brisbane, so this isn’t a 1-man-band show
• Built by a woman who has created this in such a competitive market
• Created for business owners, by a business owner, not a corporation

What blew my mind is the pricing. Most digital marketing agencies will simply quote based on the expected marketing budget of each business. Yes Digital simply shares their cost and prices online, and you’ll find that information right here on their homepage. This makes it so much easier to analyze, instead of being stuck on a sales call to simply get a quote. I wish more companies were this upfront.

Another real upside is the suite of services. They are quite well-rounded, yet at the same time, won’t be selling you on services that you won’t get a positive return on. This provides you with peace of mind that you’re only utilizing Yes Digital for the elements that will make an impact in your business or organization.

Downsides

There is a main downside. These guys are very good, but their clients are predominantly based around Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. Sure – they do have clients Australia-wide, but most commonly, clients will at times want some face-to-face time. As time goes on, I imagine that Yes Digital will have physical presences in other Australian cities.

Also, whilst I did mention the pricing is good, they also aren’t the cheapest. You will still find cheaper out there. But cheapest isn’t always the best. I’ve learned from past mistakes to always pay up for quality. After all, you will simply get what you pay for, though it seems Yes Digital does provide more value than the particular hard cost.

To say it another way, these services shouldn’t cost you money. They should make you money, through increased revenue in the future. At least, in most cases, with results much greater than if you were to do it yourself in-house.

Closing thoughts on Yes Digital

Quite simply, I would recommend Yes Digital. They didn’t set off my BS meter when researching and evaluating their services for this review. I may even consider them for SEO services in the near future. SEO is something I’m good at, but I have a heck of a lot of projects I’m working on. This is one of them, my strategy for early retirement.

Any comments or questions are welcome below, though more technical questions should go to their team. Should you wish to move forward, a phone call to their friendly team. Remember, there’s no obligation to move forward after a complimentary strategy session.

This is an in-depth review on Depreciator – the service for property investors in Australia. These guys are tax depreciation specialists and provide reports for a fee. I’m also providing a free course for those that are looking for retirement that little bit sooner.

I’ve bought and sold several investment properties over the years, and so this comes with experience. I’m always looking for more deductions, but most importantly, looking at ways to increase my passive income.

Recently, I was able to reach a substantial semi-passive income on the internet. My blog is a resource-base for those who wish to learn from that journey. I’ve inspired thousands of people for years to start walking down this path.

Let’s begin…

Depreciator evaluated

These guys are actually rock-solid. It’s clear that they have years of experience. They really do provide an immense amount of value for money. Their reputation has been built over years, and they have close affiliations with numerous Australian companies such as property investors within St George bank.

They’ll come into your investment property and do a full evaluation, using their full-time employed quantity surveyor. You don’t have to be present. This could take an hour or two, then they’ll go away and spend up to a full day writing up the complete report. Expect it to be delivered to you in a few days, ready for your accountant to evaluate.

Their upsides include:

• They only employed qualified surveyors and nothing at all outsourced
• Their knowledge stays up to date and current with changing ATO rules
• Over 100,000 Australian clients have trusted their services in 15 years
• Their staff not only speak English but a range of other languages as well
• It takes just a few minutes to get the ball rolling with Depreciator today

Then of course, to make a fair review, there’s some downsides to Depreciator.

These include:

• Not being Australia’s cheapest cost (but the cheap guys have low quality…)
• They don’t have a 100% coverage of every single Australian town and city
• Their terminology can be a little complicated for the 1st time property investor

Those really are minor downsides. Like I said – these guys are rock-solid, with many positive reviews, and will really help you get those deductions that you deserve. It’s good that you’re doing your research and thinking independently.

Using Depreciator in Australia

Depreciator has a solid presence in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and the Gold Coast. So if you have an investment property here, then they’ll be able to look after it. All these satellite offices have solid reviews online.

One thing to note is that some companies provide a cheaper online option. This is much cheaper in fact, but often, you’ll actually miss certain deductions in your property. It’s always better to spend up to pay for the better quality and skill-set that a physical presence of a real quantity surveyor provides.

Making a REAL Full-time passive income

We’ve been sold this idea that if you buy an investment property in Australia, then you’ll make money somehow. Then you’ll be able to retire. Sounds like a good plan. It just takes a seriously long time.

You only win with property investing through capital growth if the property goes up. Flat-line or negative growth means you lose money. So you’ve got a 1 in 3 chances of success. Sounds like gambling. Cash flow positive properties that make $50 per week is hardly retirement income either.

Truth is – the market in Australia is in decline. Sydney and Melbourne are being hit hard. Most property investors have negative cash-flow properties. At the same time, the world is changing. We’re going through the biggest shift in wealth in the history of the planet.

It’s simple – eCommerce and social media is changing everything, literally. This is the wave you should be catching. Many Australians are jumping on this opportunity.

My results as an Australian

Luckily, I was prepared to learn. My results are quite simple: I earn a semi-passive income that would take 2 million dollars of investment properties completely paid off to enjoy. I’m in my early 30’s.

I’m looking to work with the following people:

• Those who are passionate of passive income and an early retirement
• People who’ve read books by Robert Kiyosaki and / or Scott Pape
• Families aged 25 to 55 and are committed to work towards success
• Those who are truly committed to build their own online business

If that’s you, then this side project is something I’m committed to help you get started with. It’s not Amway, and certainly not an MLM scheme. It’s an opportunity that’s designed to help you build your own real income through the internet.

Best of all – no secrets. There’s 100% FREE training right here. It will help you get started with the process, starting today. That’s the free gift that I’m providing. It will teach you exactly how to do this, and thousands of Australians have undertaken this training.

Depreciator summary

These guys are seriously good. Their services are ideal for Australian property investors who are wanting the best deductions for their retirement nest-eggs. Feel free to call their friendly team on 1300 660 033.

That said – it will probably take 20 to 30 years to actually retire through investment properties in Australia. I’m sure you don’t want to wait that long. There is a faster way to retirement, and indeed an early retirement too, if you’re prepared to do a little extra work.

I found that way not too long ago. I’m passionate about sharing it, because I’m passionate about passive income and an early retirement. Personally – I’ll be well and truly retired at age 40, and I’m not stating that to impress you, but to show you what’s possible.

These results are because I’m prepared to learn and stay committed. I hope you’re willing to do the same. Feel free to look at the other resources on my website, or even get in touch. I’d love to hear from you.
