    Not sure if this has been answered before, but if you have a property held by a Bare trustee in an SMSF, do you have the depreciation schedule in the name of the Bare trust or the SMSF?

    SMSf is beneficial owner so it claims everything regardless whose name is on things.

    It wouldnt matter what name the schedule is in. The owner claims the deduction/s.
    You could use the former owners report if you like.
