Shukri Barbara has been my accountant for nearly 10 years. He has extensive expertise in the areas of property investment and family trusts. I find his advice quite handy, he doesn’t limit himself to the accounting aspects of my financial situation. But instead, he takes a more holistic approach where he also considers other aspects, such as potential returns of future projects, risk management, finance needs, family and estate planning, other asset classes such as shares, etc. In your typical property investment team, where you would have buyer’s agents, real estate agents, property managers, brokers, etc., normally it is your accountant the one team member that you trust the most for critical decisions. It is important to have an accountant that is familiar with all the aspects of the equation, so that you can make the most out of his advice. Shukri has helped me structure my investments, in a way that reduces tax expenses, while at the same time complying with all the regulations from ATO and the government.

Thank you for helping steer us in the right direction!
