PAYG Variation Services for Investment Properties – Newcastle, NSW

Reduce Weekly Tax & Improve Cash Flow

If you’re receiving rental income and claiming deductions — you may be eligible to reduce the tax withheld from your wages each pay cycle, rather than waiting for tax time.
This is done through a PAYG Withholding Variation (Form 1515), submitted to the ATO.
At Bottrell Accountants Newcastle, we help property investors:
  • Prepare and lodge accurate PAYG variations
  • Increase take-home pay during the year
  • Avoid large refunds or tax debts at year-end
  • Manage cash flow more effectively
Ideal for anyone who owns one or more rental properties.
