Accountants for Starting a Business

★★★★★ — Cole King

Drew is absolutely amazing and very informative regarding tax purposes.
If you are a NZ citizen and not already an Australian citizen, then you need to book a time with Drew.

It was a breath of fresh air speaking with Drew as our previous accountants could not relay a definitive answer for some of the questions we had, and Drew answered it without a second thought.

Seeking information regarding tax can be a daunting subject and not everyone explains it in Layman’s term, and that’s where Drew fits that topic.

Definitely gained a couple more clients and has definitely earnt our business going forward.

Thanks Drew 👍🏾

Drew has been exceptional. Very knowledgeable, easy to understand, timely with his responses, he came in to bat for us when we needed someone to do that. Highly, HIGHLY recommend.

★★★★★ — Tom Eldred

I was clueless when it came to processing my taxes for crypto, having a few years worth to file. Drew and the team were very thorough with their process and made it so simple on my end. Well worth the service.

Munro’s are an honest, reliable, on the ball, and personable business. The family feel engendered has been highly regarded by our family for over 40 years.

Congratulations on a significant and well deserved creditable milestone, with best wishes for what we are sure will be a successful future.

I required some complicated advice from a business accountant on an urgent matter. It involved legal issues and advice as well as accounting advice.
I contacted Drew Pflaum of Munro’s via the website, and he got back to me very promptly.
Drew showed that he was well able and indeed very keen to think outside the square.
Nothing was too much trouble and he has some very valuable professional contacts that he is able to consult with if needed.
With Drew’s obvious intelligence and honesty coupled with an enviable network of contacts, and his keen desire to achieve the best results possible in a timely manner, I have no hesitation in recommending him for any sort of business accounting advice.

Sorry, I can’t join you in your celebration on 1st September.

However, I wish to thank you for all your wonderful service for more years than I can remember, especially Simon, Carl and Annette.

★★★★★ — Jeff Hoffard

From QLD was searching for a accounting firm that could easily handle all my tax dealings including crypto transactions and Carl has been very helpful always just an email away to sort out any concerns I might have.

★★★★★ — Donovon Shaw

Thanks very much Rama & Christine! … and Drew 🙂 Although I’m based in Sydney I have been using Munros’ for my SMSF and other accounting matters for many years now and they have always been exceptionally professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I have great peace of mind knowing they have my back especially with some of my more complicated crypto matters. They are up to date with new regulations, always polite and I feel genuinely care about my circumstances. Being in Perth is actually an advantage for me as I’ve often communicated by email and phone after my normal busy working hours which has proved very convenient. Highly recommended!

★★★★★ — Reuben Crocker

The team is very responsive to emails and their communication is good. I was dealing with Brian and Saul.

★★★★★ — Max Smith

Congratulations on 50 years of accounting. We transitioned from Wesfarmers to Munros and have been extremely happy with the professional, efficient, courteous and friendly service provided by Barry, Simon, Ted, Christine and Noelene during that time

Looking forward to continuing the association for many years to come

On behalf of our farming family, congratulations on 50 years. We have been with Munros 3 generations starting I think when My Grandmother switched at the start. My late Father always had good dealings with whoever was assigned to us which there have not been too many over the 50 years which I think may be a reflection of the stability and integrity of Munros. Simon Strawbridge who was the new kid on the block back in my fathers day and the rest of the team has always provided us with great service and we thank the whole team for their support over the years.

My husband and I were looking for some advice on a short time frame with regards to purchasing a piece of farmland. We had an offer in hand and a peculiar clause that we needed advice on. Adam Carter was prompt, detailed and courteous in all dealings with us. He helped us meet our deadline, understand the consequences of each available option and now establish our small farming enterprise. We cannot thank him and the team at Munro’s enough. Highly recommend their services.

★★★★★ — RW

After “investing” in cryptocurrencies for the past few years I thought my tax return was going to be a nightmare. Cherie and the team at Munro’s have done a fantastic job at making my last two tax returns as easy as possible for me and I will be continuing to use their services in the future.

★★★★★ — ak jp

We have been looked after by accountant Mr Carl Hansen. We are very grateful for his help on our tax matters. He is very thorough, knowledgeable and easy to approach. Highly recommend!

★★★★★ — Jocelyn McPhee

Congratulations to Munro’s for achieving 50 years in business.

Special thanks and appreciation to Mike, Barry and the many staff throughout the years who have supported myself and my family with their professional services.

Accountant Drew was very helpful with a detailed insight to capital gains tax and reset period shall we sell our property. Drew contacted five minutes after I enquired to the office and followed up with this assessment

The tax tribunal has said that a common-sense assessment applies when considering the varying number of factors and even conflicting circumstances when determining if a house is someone’s main residence. In your case, the Bunbury house may have become your main residence for that short eight week stay if you moved a great deal of personal belonging there. However, a common-sense assessment likely suggests it did not become your main residence (at least on the facts that I know). If it didn’t become your main residence, then the maximum period you can claim the property as your main residence for the period since 2018 is 6 years. I.e. 2018-2014. For the period 2024 onwards, the main residence exemption cannot apply. You could, however, move back in and re-establish it as your main residence and then move out and rent again, which would restart the absentee rule. However, you still would not get the main residence exemption for the period 2024 to the time you moved back in because the maximum 6 years has expired for this current period of absence.

I was recommended to use Munro’s as I had a number of well overdue tax issues to have resolved. All was promptly taken care of and with a far better outcome than I had anticipated…great work Josephine! Highly recommended!

★★★★★ — Boston Whooley

High quality and professional advise. I would highly recommend Munro’s if you are looking for a quality team to work with.

★★★★★ — Mark Howlett

Got terrific service and advice from Drew. Simple, informative and a quick response time too. Would recommend.

★★★★★ — Philip Maguire

Our dealings with Drew Pflaum of Munros were a revelation to my wife and I. Never before had we encountered a business accountant with such dedicated commitment to his clients. Drew’s work ethic is outstanding. When we found Drew online we were in desperate circumstances, faced with the loss of our two properties.

His empathy, hard work, patience and breadth of knowledge was incomparable and took us from despair to hope very quickly. He worked out strategies that bought us time and helped us immensely.

Without Drew’s input our future prospects were bleak. We’re delighted to have had the opportunity to review our very positive experience.

★★★★★ — Carlos Braun

Have been using Munro’s for many years now and always happy with the thorough and speedy work they do. Highly recommended.

★★★★★ — Kevin Connor

When I first discovered Munro’s and spoke to Drew, it was clear that they would be the perfect solution to my accounting issues. Owing to the nascent nature of crypto, I struggled to find a firm knowledgable and confident enough to handle my vast transaction history, across many networks and numerous wallets.

Working closely with Rama, I have experienced nothing but prompt and clear communication at all times. I continue to be impressed with the accuracy, clarity and professional services I receive.

In my experience, I have found Munro’s services are always provided with courteous and bespoke correspondence.

Many thanks and congratulations to 50 years.

I’ve used Munro’s for my past 3 tax returns. They are always very responsive to my enquiries and provide excellent advice when questioned. I now have a much better understanding of the tax obligations within my field of work and my investments thanks to them. It’s definitely worth paying for an accountant who knows what they’re doing! Cheers.

★★★★★ — Chloe Pritchard

I was looking for a business advisor for my small business in the Perth area and stumbled across Munro’s. On the website I was able to conveniently book an initial meeting with them to find out how I could achieve long term growth. One of their business accountants, Drew, promptly replied back and even helped accommodate a meeting on an earlier date. I met with him at their Perth office, and he was beyond helpful. After the meeting he followed up with an email, comprehensively outlining what we had discussed with great tips to help me move forward with growing my business. I really appreciated that Munro’s was willing to take the time to meet with me and help me even though my business is still a little too small to pursue Munro’s services. Drew didn’t try and upsell me and was so helpful and realistic with what I should do at this current stage in my business.

★★★★★ — Bev Margetts

Mike has been most helpful and professional with our accounting, superannuation and taxation affairs. We had transferred some years ago from a less than professional person and now very pleased to be with Munro’s. Congratulations on 50 years and best wishes for a long and successful future.

★★★★★ — Paulo

Excellent accounting service with a deep understanding of tax implications for SMSFs.

I was very impressed with Munro’s accounting service. Before I engaged with Munro’s, I met with accountants across Australia, but I decided to go with Munro’s because of their breadth and understanding of taxation.

Brian from Munro’s was able to quickly and efficiently complete my 2023 tax returns, and also provided additional advice and expertise on how I could better structure my affairs.

Originally, I briefed Munro’s to wind back my SMSF due to the administrative burden of managing it. However, Munro’s was able to clearly understand my affairs and prepare the tax documentation in a way that reduced the administrative burden. I was so impressed with their service that I decided to continue with the SMSF after all.

I highly recommend Munro’s to anyone looking for an accounting service with a deep understanding of taxation and SMSFs.

Crypto trading is a new thing and I believe, just like many others I had made lots of mistakes not knowing that trading Crypto is a taxable event. Lucky, there is someone knowledgeable about this matter.

Great education and support in this challenging time I have received from Drew the man!

The level of communication is top, accurate and precise. They put their heart into the work to help out their client. Highly recommend if you are seeking a Crypto tax return service.

Thanks Drew the man and Michael.”

★★★★★ — Laura Hooton

Great Firm. Have been dealing with Christine for a few years and she is always there for advice and willing to help. Highly recommend.

★★★★★ — Moree Grazing Co, Tambellup WA

We have been clients of Munro’s (and Donald F Munro & Assoc. before that) for more than 50 years and have always found them to be right on point with their advice and work. Nothing is too much trouble to research and the responses always given in easy-to-understand language. We love that the K.I.S.S principle is used (keep-it-simple-stupid!) We can’t thank Simon and Carl enough for the great service that they provide. I have also, in community roles, worked with Barry Virgo and Ian Arblaster over the years on Co-operative business and their knowledge was second to none.

Thank you and congratulations Munro’s on 50 years + in business.

★★★★★ — Ivan Lai

Friendly staff and excellent service. During the past five years, their team have provided very useful advice on tax savings. Their prompt response and well explanation to my questions are well worth Five Stars. Thanks Josephine, Christine and the team. Highly recommended without hesitation.

★★★★★ — the big fella

I used Munro’s for the first time this past year for my tax. My situation was complicated, but this did not phase them. A massive thankyou to the team there including Drew and Christine. Their professionalism was excellent. I cannot flaw their efforts at all. It was a pleasure to deal with them. Thankyou very much Munro’s. See you next year.

★★★★★ — Shiny Sheep

5 Stars from Don. I can’t thank Drew and Brian enough for dealing with my very complex history across multiple years of cryptocurrency trading. This has been across many exchanges, wallets, and my Dash Masternode history also. Drew and Brian have been flawless when fielding my various questions across the months it has taken to work through my complex case load.
Based in Sydney, I got into cryptocurrency in 2013, and it lead me down a trajectory in life I could never have foreseen. Getting this tax aspect of it up to date will take a layer of stress off my back.

I highly recommend Munro’s, Perth.
