“It’s dark, it’s raining, and you’re driving an unfamiliar dirt road. And your accountant? He’s beside you, working away, head down.”
That’s how most people experience accounting. We do it the other way round — eyes up, watching the road ahead for you.

— Kate Formosa, client
Our head accountant is both a CPA and a Chartered Accountant with over 25 years in public practice. You’re getting the right advice, and you’re getting it from someone who knows you.
More about AIMTwenty years ago Cooranbong was Avondale, Sanitarium and a scattering of houses. Now there are whole estates where there used to be bush, and a lot of the people living in them are buying their first home, running a trade, or doing both at once.
That brings a particular set of questions. What you can and can’t claim when you’ve just built. Whether to run the ute through the business. When a side job stops being a hobby and starts being a business the ATO expects to hear about. Whether it’s worth setting up a company or staying a sole trader.
None of those have a one-line answer, and none of them are well served by an app or a shopfront that changes staff every July. They’re the sort of thing you want to ask someone who’ll still be there next year.
The other half of the picture is people who’ve been here decades — families connected to Avondale and the church community, small businesses that have traded through several downturns, and people coming up to retirement wondering whether the super will actually do what they need it to.
We hold a CPA and a Chartered Accountant qualification and we’re licensed for financial planning as well, which means the tax conversation and the retirement conversation can happen in the same room instead of being handed between two firms who never speak.
