How We Get Started – Businesses

Thank you to Mike and Munro’s for your expertise, professionalism and patience.

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.

From the moment we met Simon Strawbridge we were impressed and put at ease by his personable manner. We knew our taxation assessment was in competent and knowledgeable hands.We have been with Munro’s for 8+ years. During this time Drew Pflaum assisted us with BAS issues, which was greatly appreciated easing another financial burden. All the staff whom have assisted us through the years have been highly professional and always pleasant. In particular those at the reception desk always helped us with a smile. Even when reception was not attended, someone was quick to assist us. Munro’s make taxation assessment time a breeze. Thank you Munro’s. Congratulations on 50 years of excellent service

Munro’s have helped build our business from strength to strength for over 40 years! No problem or question has ever been too large or too small and all have been dealt with in a timely and efficient manner. Thanks to Simon, Carl and the team for your continual excellent service.

Drew and the team made my 2019 tax return easy. They also made an alteration to my 2018 tax return and I had an unexpected return. Highly recommended.

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.

At HiscoNFE we use Munro’s for all of our tax and accounting advice and we are always impressed with the quality of their service. The team at Munro’s is extremely knowledgeable, professional, helpful and affordable and Drew in particular is a guru when it comes to anything that involves tax. On the rare occasion where Simon has suggested we get a second opinion for a complex tax matter, the Munro’s advice has always been proven to be spot on! We highly recommend the team at Munro’s and we are very grateful for their support over the last 10 years. Sincere thanks from the owners at HiscoNFE!

We worked with Ben and his team from MUNRO’s accountants in Perth during a business purchase and due diligence process, and were absolutely impressed with their service.

Munro’s are by far the best accounting firm I’ve ever dealt with it. My accountant Carl is very good at what he does and I would highly recommend him and the entire Munro’s team. They provide the most amazing customer service, absolute pleasure to deal with, incredible attention to detail and extremely experienced in all aspects of accounting for business, crypto, derivatives, property etc. I’m confident to say Munro’s have my business for life.

A big shout out to Mike and his team at Munro’s for the outstanding work you’ve done on our accounts and returns!!

From our very first interaction with Mike, we had a great feeling about engaging with Munro’s, and you’ve more than delivered.

It’s been such a relief to know our business and personal accounts are in such capable hands.

Highly recommended.

Congratulations Munro’s on reaching this significant milestone!

Our family business has been with Munro’s since its establishment 50 years ago. They have supported our business through 3 generations and we are confident that our relationship will continue to grow for many years to come. They are professional, reliable and understanding and we think of them like an extension of our family. We would highly recommend them to anyone!

★★★★★ — Val McAlpine

David and I have been loyal clients of Munros for many years—I think since we were married in 1962. David made all the decisions in those early years. I became a more active partner as we worked with Ted Wilhelm and Ian Arblaster until their retirement. We then worked with Christine Prasetia for our financial, accounting, taxation and our wills until David’s death in May, 2017. Christine has patiently guided me through taking up the reins of our business venture. She is very efficient and totally reliable in all our dealings. I feel fortunate to have Christine as my accountant and business advisor. Thanking you, Val McAlpine

Very knowledgeable experts on complicated crypto tax matters. I would highly recommend every trader/investor to bite the bullet and seek professional advice from Munro’s.

★★★★★ — Tim Guest

Had a longstanding relationship with Munro’s for over a decade. Mike has always gone over and above for me and has my highest recommendation. Thank you.

★★★★★ — Jamie Little (JAMIETV)

Professional service, very quick & reliable especially when it involves Cryptocurrency. Went out of their way to assist by a deadline that I had & they were happy to accommodate.

★★★★★ — Adrian van Bart

I came over to Australia with a highly complicated cryptocurrency investing and trading portfolio. I never realised that I had to declare this in my tax returns as I had never cashed out into my bank account. I soon discovered that every transaction is taxable irrespective of whether or not you cash out. I contacted Munro’s in an outright panic and was put through to Cherie and explained everything to her. She immediately put me at ease and took control of my situation. From the start it was evident that I was in the care of a real professional tax consultant. I handed her a nightmare on a plate (3 years of highly complicated transactions) and she seamlessly worked through it. Cherie has incredible knowledge and experience and through this, Munro’s saved us thousands of dollars. I will remain at Munro’s until the very end. Thank you Cherie, you are the most knowledgeable and professional tax consultant that I have ever dealt with.

★★★★★ — 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!

★★★★★ — Traviss Orr

Thanks Drew and Michael, great job 👍

★★★★★ — Ferrante Alvarezdetoledo

Happy 50 years !!! I joined Munro’s in 1974 just close to when the accounting firm had started, Don Munro was my accountant at the time and helped greatly in all my various problems and successes and he still remained a very dear friend to me; now Simon Strawbridge is looking after me and I can only praise all the work that he has been doing for me not only in accounting, but also in advising my various legal problems and investments.

I can only say well done to the whole team and hope that I will still be their client in the coming years.
