Today we say goodbye to Miss Potts.

Courtney stepped into her role on our admin team two years ago, and while we are sad to see her go, we are incredibly grateful for all the amazing efforts she made during her time here.

Her dedication, care, and contributions have left a lasting impact, and she will be greatly missed. We wish her all the very best in her next chapter.

Bravo Norwood A special thank you to our lovely clients for the farewell pizza party - it was a wonderful way to celebrate Courtney and her time with us.

We’re so excited to share that we smashed our fundraising goal yesterday at our Cancer Council Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea! 🎉☕

A huge thank you to everyone who supported us this year - from those who brought in delicious treats to share, to everyone who purchased something from our adorable gift table.

Your generosity and enthusiasm made all the difference.

There’s still time to donate to this incredible cause, in honour of all our loved ones impacted by cancer. Every contribution counts 💛

☕💛 We’re hosting Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea! 💛☕

Today is more than just a morning tea for us - it’s something deeply personal, and a cause that’s very close to our hearts.

Like so many others, we’ve seen firsthand the impact cancer can have on the people we love. The strength, the heartbreak, the hope - it never leaves you. That’s why we’re coming together to support the Cancer Council and help make a difference for those currently facing this journey, those who have fought so hard and survived, and those who may face it in the future.

💛 Every donation, no matter the size, helps fund life-saving research, support services for families, and ongoing care for people going through some of the hardest moments of their lives.

If you’re able to give, we would be incredibly grateful. And if not, simply sharing this means the world too. 💛

Thank you for helping us honour those we’ve lost, stand beside our survivors, support those still fighting, and bring hope to so many 💛

With the Federal Budget released on Tuesday night, we know you may have questions about how it could impact you.

We’re here to help - whether that’s answering your questions or assisting with CGT calculations and planning.

We’ve highlighted some key measures and what they may mean for you:

💰 For individuals
• Up to $250 annual tax offset for working Australians (from 2027–28)
• $1,000 instant deduction for work-related expenses
• Continued focus on easing cost-of-living pressures

🏡 Housing & investment changes
• Negative gearing limited to new builds from July 2027
• Capital gains tax reforms replacing the current discount with an inflation-based approach
• Measures aimed at improving housing affordability and supply

🧾 Tax reform
• New 30% minimum tax on certain trusts from July 2028 - restructure
• Broader shifts designed to rebalance the system towards wage earners
• Restructure Rollover Relief: From 1 July 2027, a three-year rollover relief will be available to facilitate restructuring from discretionary trusts into companies or fixed trusts without triggering immediate capital gains tax (CGT) consequences

🏥 Health & care funding
• Increased investment in public hospitals and Medicare services
• Permanent funding for urgent care clinics
• Changes to NDIS to improve sustainability

🏢 Business & investment
• $20,000 instant asset write-off extended for small business
• Reduced red tape and productivity-focused reforms
• Ongoing infrastructure and defence investment

📉 Economic outlook
• Budget remains in deficit (~$30B) but improving
• Inflation expected to peak around ~5% amid global pressures

🔎 What this might mean for you:
This budget introduces significant structural tax changes - particularly for property investors and business structures - while balancing near-term relief with long-term reform.

It may be an ideal time to review your current structure and strategy to ensure it remains fit for purpose.

Give us a call on 08 8267 5877 and book in to see one of our amazing accountants to discuss any of these further.
