Problems we solve

We are focused on solving your problems and making life easier for you. Some of the common problems we help people with are:

Most clients we see for the first time they believe they are paying too much tax and most of the time they are right! We will ensure that you are structured correctly, plan before the end of June each year and claim every deduction you are entitled to so that you are not paying any more tax than is necessary.

If you feel you are currently paying too much tax, why don’t you consider our “second opinion” service? We will review your last two tax returns for a cost of $500. If we cannot find more than $500 in tax savings for you then the review will be at our expense.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail, and this couldn’t apply more to cash flow. We will look at your income, expenses, and when your tax obligations are due and come up with a plan to ensure that you are managing your cash and sleeping well at night.
If you have outstanding obligations with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) and they are hassling you with phone calls and threatening letters, then we can help.

We have a good relationship with the ATO and can stop these phone calls and letters, get your lodgements up to date and put payment arrangements in place where necessary so you don’t have all the stress and worry
Starting and running your own business is challenging at the best of times. You don’t want to be running around organising things such as ABN’s, GST registrations, company registrations and setup and stressing about all the obligations go with this. If you would like to start your own business, we are the people to talk to.
With interest rates on savings as low as they are, you may be concerned about your money not working for you. We can work together with our professional partners to use strategies that will deliver achievable goals and create wealth.

What our customers say

  • Jason Hodge

    J
    Director, Darkside Creative
    Brandon and the team at Devoir have helped me substantially in structuring my finances with trusts, business accounts and a Self-Managed Super Fund.

    This has given me the opportunity to build a new multinational business and expanded my investment portfolio across broad assets. The team at Devoir have protected my investments and assets, minimised personal and investment tax, increased holdings substantially and developed a strong plan, mapped out beyond retirement.

    The team make life easy, managing everything for me with transparent reporting so I can get on with everything I am passionate about without worrying about what my money is doing. When any of my friends or family ask me how they can set their life up to get to where I am, I recommend they start by calling Brandon and getting a game plan together.

  • Brendan Irwin

    B
    Senior Investment Research Analyst, SQM Research
    Brandon Perry has been my accountant for many years and has been responsible for lodging both my business and personal tax returns. Over this period Brandon has always been very proactive, helpful, and very professional. He has found several tax deductions (business and personal) I was not aware of and gone above and beyond in helping me to sort out some complex capital gains tax issues for me.

    Brandon has provided me with peace of mind that my tax affairs are in order, and I could not recommend his services highly enough.

  • Bianca Williamson

    Senior Associate, Dentons
    I am a solicitor and have been using Brandon Perry to prepare my personal tax returns for approximately 10 years. More recently, I have engaged Brandon to prepare tax returns for my family trust and to provide income and asset structure advice. In my experience and opinion, Brandon delivers an excellent and professional service in a timely manner. In preparing my tax returns, Brandon readily identifies the deductions that are appropriate to my circumstances and industry. Working with Brandon is seamless in that it involves minimal disruption to my busy schedule. Brandon is also very approachable and knowledgeable, happy to answer any tax queries I have. I would recommend Brandon to my friends and family.

    I have known Brandon Perry for over 15 years both professionally and socially.

    I know him well and regard him highly.

    A Chartered Accountant, Brandon’s professional skills and acumen are unquestionable; and his common sense and general knowledge are just as impressive.

    Brandon is scrupulously honest.

    As well as being my Tax Agent, Brandon has formally acted for me and advised me on a variety of tax matters.

    Whether it be in relation to business dealings or estate planning or other financial matters, Brandon is experienced and a “font of knowledge”. I count myself fortunate to have had his informal advice and feedback on many occasions.

    Brandon and I served on the Board of our schoolboy Alumni Association from 2008 to 2018. He still sits on that Board, testimony to how well his views are regarded.

    We share common interests and mutual friends, who like me, all find him both convivial and level-headed.

    Director, Everi Day Co
    Brandon has always been extremely helpful with my financial matters. When I started a small business three years ago, he gave me advice on tax return, super and saving tax for the future which is all very helpful information for me.

    He broke it down into easy-to-understand language for somebody who is not as financially savvy.

    He’s helped me over the years imbed Xero into my businesses and always respond to any of my queries as soon as he can. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him to anyone!

  • Craig Mortimer

    Director, Mortimer Metal
    Brandon Perry has managed my finances and taxes in both my self-managed super fund and my personal tax accounting and deductions.

    I would recommend Brandon as I have received maximum benefit in any aspect associated with these. Brandon is totally professional and always willing to help in any circumstances. As an example of this, during the current covid lockdown I was confined to my house and unable to work and struggling with finances. I called Brandon and he tracked down money owed to me from long service which I am surviving on now.

    I just want to say thank you Brandon and offer this well-deserved referral.

    Now that I have used "Brandon" of Devoir Accounting re- since 2019, he has helped me to reconcile my personal tax and my SMSF for year 2019 and 2020. Wow!

    I was very happy with the result and how Brandon made it quick and easy for me to sort my tax deductions, entitlements, and depreciations etc. on both returns...

    He's truly an honest professional person who completes these tax returns / tasks in a fast and efficient way.

    Did I mention he's a heck of nice Guy to boot?!

    I can recommend Devoir Accounting to everyone I know and don't know..!

    Thanks again Brandon and I hope to see you every year from now on...
