Interested in learning more about property in a supportive and welcoming environment?

Join Brew Accounting's Joanna Stuart at the upcoming Women in Property September Insights Dinner, hosted by Carmem Rudd.

This event is for women who want to deepen their understanding of property, build connections and learn from the experiences of others.

Joanna will be sharing insights from a tax perspective and some of the common tax questions that come up around property. The evening is really about bringing together knowledgeable people, sharing experiences and learning from one another, rather than providing financial or investment advice.

One of the things we love most about these events is the opportunity they create for meaningful conversations and genuine connections. Through Carmen Rudd Properties, women are encouraged to ask questions, share ideas and learn from a range of professionals and lived experiences.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to expand your knowledge, this will be a valuable and engaging evening.

📅 Tuesday 29 September
🕔 5:00pm to 7:15pm

🎟️ Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/women-in-property-september-insights-dinner-tickets-1998517432439

We hope to see you there.

Choosing an accountant is a trust decision.

Most people are not simply looking for someone to lodge a return.

They are looking for clear advice, timely answers and support that helps them understand the numbers before decisions need to be made.

That is the kind of feedback we value most from Brew clients.

If you are reviewing your accountant ahead of the Financial Year, now is a good time to start the conversation.

EOFY is a good time to review more than your numbers.

If you only hear from your accountant at tax time, feel surprised by your tax bill, or are unsure what actions apply to your business, it may be time to review the support you are getting.

The right accountant should help you understand the numbers and plan ahead — not just lodge after the fact.

From 1 July, employers will need to pay super with each payday rather than quarterly.

The amount of super may not be changing, but the timing is — which can affect payroll processes, employee details and cash flow.

Before the first July pay run, it is worth checking that your payroll setup and super payment process are ready.

If payroll already feels messy, now is the time to review it.

For some businesses, EOFY is not just about deductions.

Stock on hand, work-in-progress, completed jobs not yet invoiced, supplier bills and income received in advance can all affect how accurate your year-end numbers are.

Before 30 June, it may be worth checking whether your accounts reflect what is actually happening in the business.

Clearer records lead to a clearer picture of profit, cash flow and the year ahead.

Before 30 June, it may be worth reviewing your unpaid invoices and aged receivables.

Old customer balances can affect more than cash flow — they can also make your year-end numbers less accurate.

EOFY is a good time to check what is still collectible, what needs following up, and whether any amounts should be reviewed with your accountant.

Cleaner numbers give you a clearer picture of your business position.

EOFY is a good time to review whether your expenses are recorded properly and whether anything has been missed.

This is not about guessing or claiming everything that looks business-related.

It is about making sure your records support your claims — from subscriptions and insurance to motor vehicle costs, home office expenses, training and professional fees.

Good records make tax time easier and help your accountant give better advice.

Buying equipment, technology or tools before 30 June may be worth reviewing — but only if the purchase makes sense for your business.

A deduction can help, but spending money just to reduce tax does not always leave you better off.

Before buying, check the cash flow impact, timing, eligibility and whether the asset supports your business goals.

Thinking about making extra super contributions before 30 June?

It may be worth reviewing — but timing, caps and eligibility matter.

Before acting, check what has already been contributed and whether it suits your tax and cash flow position.

𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐈 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝟏 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟕?

It’s a fair question — especially if you’re holding an asset with a large unrealised gain and wondering how the proposed CGT changes could affect you.

With legislation now introduced following the Federal Budget, this is one of those decisions that needs a calculator, not a crystal ball — and it’s something we spend a lot of time helping clients work through.

The proposed CGT changes are intended to start from 1 July 2027, but the detail matters. For many people, the answer won’t be as simple as selling before a date.

There may be reasons not to rush:

• The legislation has been introduced, but it is not yet final
• Selling may trigger tax now
• Transaction costs may reduce any benefit
• You’ll need a plan for what happens to the proceeds
• You may end up selling a good asset for tax reasons alone
• The projected saving may be smaller than expected
• Existing assets may require more detailed modelling depending on timing and future growth

There may also be good reasons to review your position now:

• Large unrealised gains
• A planned sale in the next 1–3 years
• Ownership structure and tax treatment need closer review
• Retirement or estate planning considerations
• A business sale on the horizon
• Debt or cash flow pressure
• Significant expected growth after 1 July 2027

The point is not necessarily to sell early.

The point is to model the options before making a decision.

Budget announcements can create pressure to act quickly, but good advice looks at the numbers, timing and bigger picture.

Review now. Don’t panic.
