What sets The SMSF Accountant apart
The SMSF Accountant is a CPA Accounting Firm that provides a professional self managed superannuation fund (“SMSF”) administration and compliance service.
Our staff have over 10 years of experience in the superannuation and accounting industry and provide a quality professional service at a fraction of the cost of other providers. This is because we do not believe in charging you based on the value of your fund. Our fees are based on a “for service” model and hence will be determined on the amount of time spent providing the services requested. For instance, with a similar investment structure, we may end up charging the same amount for a $200,000 fund as a $2,000,000 fund. We are not financial planners and do not provide investment advice. We are highly experienced in the area of superannuation and can provide detailed technical advice in all areas of superannuation and tax.
Audit and actuarial services are provided by quality third-party providers at very reasonable rates.
If you desire a straight forward administration service, with high quality technical superannuation and tax advice thrown in as a bonus, please contact us for a discussion about your requirements and we will provide you with a quote on the spot.
We also provide other ancillary services in relation to the administration of SMSFs.
