Land vs. Building for CCA


PeteH

Recommended Posts

Hi, 

Was wondering how to determine the initial CCA value for a rental value (ie. building portion of the purchase price, excluding land value). Tried looking up the valuation on property tax but Ontario property tax bills doesn't split land and building into separate valuations? Is there a standard proportion being use for residential rental properties? 

Also, at future disposition, I suppose one needs to split the sale proceeds (into land and building), and only take UCC LESS the land portion of the proceeds to find out the recapture amount to be added to that year's income?

Thanks,

Hi Pete

Appraisals are pricey, so what I would do to start is, call the property assessment office.

Even if they don't give a breakdown, I'd be surprised if they don't have one in their process.  After all, as the building ages, it drops in value, while the land may go up.

In BC, they do give a breakdown, but I call the assessment office every year to check my land value.  The reason for that is, we have farm status, which dramatically lowers the land value that we are taxed on.  I call, and they give me the actual value for each of our properties.

Hi Brenda, 

Thanks a lot for the advice. I will give the municipal office which issues annual property tax bills to find out 👍
