Save this post. It's worth going through properly, not just skimming once and forgetting.

New financial year is the one time most business owners naturally stop and check in - but a lot of that checking-in stays surface-level. Budget, structure, cashflow, banking, records, expenses: six areas worth an honest look, because most of them were set up once and never revisited.

Which of these six haven't you looked at in over a year? Tell us below. 👇

Most tradies we speak to are leaving money on the table at EOFY - not because the deductions don't exist, but because they didn't know what qualified or left it too late to act.

30 June isn't just the end of the financial year. It's the cut-off for a handful of claims that only work if you move before the date.

Swipe through to see what's still on the table, and if any of it applies to your business, give us a call this week.

Owning an investment property comes with real tax advantages — but only if they're claimed correctly and on time.

Depreciation schedules, loan interest, repairs versus capital improvements — these are the areas where we most commonly see property owners either missing deductions or claiming them incorrectly. Both are problems at tax time.

If you haven't reviewed your investment property position before 30 June, there's still time — but not much of it.

Most tradies think the ATO only sees what they report. That's not how it works anymore.

The ATO's data matching program pulls information from licensing bodies, financial institutions, fuel tax registries, and online job platforms — before you've lodged a single return. If your declared income doesn't line up with the picture those sources paint, your return gets flagged.

This isn't about doing anything wrong. It's about making sure your books tell a consistent, defensible story, because the ATO's version of your business already exists. The question is whether yours matches it.

If you're a Gold Coast tradie and you're not sure your records stack up, that's the conversation to have before 30 June, not after a review letter arrives.

Your BAS is due and you can't pay. Here's what to do — and what not to do. 👇

01 — Don't ignore it.
Ignoring a BAS debt doesn't make it disappear. It triggers general interest charges (currently 11.38% p.a.) and puts you on the ATO's radar for follow-up action. The earlier you respond, the more options you have.

02 — Contact the ATO early.
The ATO has a Small Business Support line and an online payment plan tool. Reaching out before the debt escalates shows good faith — and it matters when they're assessing your case.

03 — Request a payment plan.
The ATO regularly approves payment plans for businesses experiencing genuine cash flow difficulty. Interest still accrues, but penalties are reduced when you engage proactively. You can apply online through ATO Online Services or through your tax agent.

04 — Let your tax agent negotiate for you.
A registered tax agent can contact the ATO on your behalf, present your circumstances professionally, and negotiate a payment arrangement that works for your cash flow. We do this regularly for Gold Coast businesses — it's far less stressful than going it alone.

The worst thing you can do is nothing. Get in touch today.

Did you know these are all tax-deductible in Australia? 🇦🇺

Most people leave money on the table every single year — not because they're doing anything wrong, but because nobody told them what they can actually claim.

Here's the full breakdown 👇
📱 Phone bill: if you use it for work, even partially, you can claim the work-use percentage. Keep a 4-week diary as evidence.
☀️ Sunscreen & sunglasses: if your job requires you to work outdoors, these are deductible. Tradies, landscapers, outdoor hospitality staff — this one's for you.
🧾 Accountant's fees: every dollar you pay to have your tax return lodged is deductible the following year. It genuinely pays for itself.
🛡️ Income protection insurance: if your premiums are paid outside of super, they're generally tax deductible. Most people have the policy. Almost nobody claims it.
🔧 Tools, equipment & software: bought for work before 30 June? It may be immediately deductible under the instant asset write-off. Keep your receipts.
📚 Training & upskilling: a course, workshop or qualification directly related to your current job or business income is deductible. Not a career change — your current role.

Not sure what you're entitled to? That's exactly what we're here for. Book a free consultation with our team before 30 June, link in bio. 👇

Tradies, this one's specifically for you. 🔧

We work with a lot of builders, electricians, plumbers, and landscapers across the Gold Coast, and the same things come up every single year.

The logbook that never got started. The TPAR that got missed. The instant asset write-off that nobody mentioned.

Save this post and use it as your starting point before 30 June. Or better yet, come and see us and we'll do the heavy lifting.

Swipe through as this one's worth saving. 💾

Every year we sit down with new clients who've been lodging their own returns and missing legitimate deductions. Not because they're doing anything wrong — they just don't know what they can claim.

The ATO doesn't volunteer the information. That's what a good accountant is for.

If any of these apply to your situation, let's talk before 30 June. There's still time to get organised.
