    B,

    There are some excellent accountants in Sydney. Nick from Strategic Wealth Management and Ed Chan from Chan & Naylor are, from what I hear, very good.

    Just make sure that when you say you want “someone able to call for advice and get an answer” that you are willing to pay for that advice.

    In my practice I will only provide written advice to clients but will charge for ALL advice. For those who want freebies I always say to clients that you get what you pay for. Providing you have that understanding then either Nick or Ed would serve you well.

    Hi B Smith

    As Coastymike stated Ed Chan from Chan & Naylor is very good. I use them and Ed is an investor himself so knows all the tricks of the trade. Check them out at http://www.chan-naylor.com.au.

    Hi Smithy,

    I would suggest that Chan Naylor will charge for their advice time – I would be surprised if Nick didn’t also charge for their time.

    I would also offer Coasty Mike as a possibility – his posts indicate a depth of knowledge.

    Of greater concern is the quality of the advice – cheap doesn’t necessarily equate to good. You will probably find that an annual review will suffice and thereafter the process just happens in between annual visitations.

    Thanks for the prompt replies.We were not looking for free advice just for someone to advise us and work with us to continue and grow our business in property investing.
