A History of Growth, Innovation & Happy Clients

★★★★★ — Fay & Steve

Our Munro’s Experience began approximately 38/40 years ago. Steve’s parents were already customers of Munros, in particular Barry Virgo, and we followed suit.

For the first couple of years we had several changes of Accountants at Munro’s (we always got the newbies and had to ‘train them up’ to know how to get the best deal from the Tax Office for farmers. We became fed up of this system. Our last newbie was Simon Strawbridge. Well, we got him “trained up right proper” then they wanted to give us the next new one, but we stated we weren’t changing.

Today, Simon is still our go to man. Whilst we understand there have been many very efficient people working in the background on our business affairs, for which we thank them sincerely, we have always maintained our professional relationship with Simon.

We have been through some big business changes in our farming adventures over these past 40 odd years, and the advice, help and professional assistance has been 100%. At times we didn’t know who to trust to give us the best business advice and we were fortunate to be able to lean on Simon’s vast knowledge to help us make these decisions.

Our working partnership of having our taxation needs, investment portfolios, wills, etc. linked in with Munros and the great staff has been successful.

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.

Great first experience at Monro’s! Took on the service expecting a sizable tax bill and ended up with a rebait, also learned about tax laws. Will defiantly be back next year.

★★★★★ — Gautam Sathivel

One of the best decisions we made was switching our accounting services to Munro’s. Especial thanks for Saul and Brian for their extensive knowledge, understanding our business requirement, goals and most importantly keeping us compliant. Extremely happy to engage with this organisation and team.

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.

Munros have been doing my family tax returns for the past 3 years, and I’ve been nothing but delighted with the service they’ve offered. They took on a relatively complex set of returns, including sharing of CGT benefits between myself and my partner, and did exactly what I hoped they’d do, and more. Not only that, they always went above and beyond to explain what they have done and why, keeping us happy and at ease at all times during the tax return processes.

And to top it off, their knowledge of the crypto space is phenomenal, as are the tools they’ve developed to report and get the best possible returns with cryptos in mind.

Give them a try, I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.

★★★★★ — Alex C

Munros was really helpful in listening to my situation and taking their time in pointing me to the right direction for my complex tax matters. I high recommend their services!

★★★★★ — Dawn Phillips

Munro’s have been dealing with our taxes for a couple of years now, and have always been right onto anything to do with crypto and any other aspects of the industries we work in. Always friendly, helpful and professional.

★★★★★ — 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.

★★★★★ — Nick & Katy Formica

We wish to thank Mike & his team @ Munros for their professional help & service over the past 20 years . Having just recently sold our franchise business after 14 years, Mike has guided us through those times with success & helped us to achieve our family goals within our business. Congratulations on your 50th Anniversary. Looking forward to continue to work with Mike & the team in the near future.

★★★★★ — 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.

★★★★★ — 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!

★★★★★ — Eric Mastro

Munro’s were able to take complicated tax matters like cryptocurrency trading income for a new company and turn it in to a simple solution for me. Drew has always been amazingly patient and helpful, answering emails quickly and taking the time to respond thoroughly so the matter could be clearly understood. Highly recommended for any tax accounting needs!!

★★★★★ — Tom Robson

Drew and the team have been excellent from the day we began our journey with Munro’s. They’ve always been prompt with communication and provide advice that is clear and easy to understand. We’ve been very happy with their service over the last 3 years and look forward to working with them into the future. Thanks Drew, Nick, Simon and Carl!

Looking forward to continuing the association for many years to come

★★★★★ — Jim Kozmo

I’m extremely pleased with the services of Munro’s Accountants. They are professional and easy to work with. My situation was not simple yet they completed the task and have provided me with peace of mind going forwards. I would not hesitate to recommend them. AAAAA+++++

★★★★★ — 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.

★★★★★ — 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 👍🏾

★★★★★ — Markus Mark

Munro’s are an outstanding outfit mastering in complicated tax situations and are highly focussed on providing a client centred approach. I presented Saul with a complicated case of overdue tax’s and substantial crypto and share trading activity. To say that he handled this situation with aplomb is an understatement. He resolved my situation promptly and what seemed to be with ease. Sure it is great to have your taxes done by consummate professionals but for me this is not their best feature. It is the customer service that I received that was outstanding and exceeded my expectations. He was extremely patient and dealt with my constant questioning with a great attitude. Always polite and willing to offer his professional advice I sincerely felt like a had an ally in my corner. Saul was a pleasure to work with and I look forward to next years Tax Time.

Mark.

As soon as I saw that Munro’s were recommended by the cryptocurrency tracking app CoinTracking for tax advice, I knew they must be absolute pros.

Munro’s will be my accountants for life now. Nothing was too much trouble and everything has gone so smoothly.

Here’s what Carl fixed for me for my latest tax return:

reconciled complex history from various crypto exchanges, some of which are now defunct, which I had spent several days trying to get various AI models to assist with to no avail

fixed my balance issue in CoinTracking to accurately reflect my position

Corrected purchase and sales history for employee shares scheme

Adjust various mistakes from my previous accountants and carry forward the adjustments

Scrutinised previous tax returns to adjust missed capital losses from a kitchen renovation completed over a decade ago on an investment property that can now be used to offset future capital gains.

Provide clear advice on every single thing I asked with no hesitation. It’s so obvious that these guys have seen it all and done it all.

Because I’m with Munro’s now, I feel SO much more confident about some big financial moves where the nightmarish tax implications would otherwise boggle the mind.

Thank you so much!

By the way, I wasn’t asked to do this review or sent one of those “please review us on Google” emails. I am posting this because I’m so happy with the service I was provided, it sells itself and I suppose a perfect 5 star rating with 140+ reviews is a testament to the fact that all of Munro’s customers have a similar experience to me. If you have complex tax affairs I don’t think you’ll find anyone better.

★★★★★ — Matt Mckinley

Drew, Simon and the team at Munro’s have been our family and business accountants for many years now. They provide excellent service and advice. We would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

★★★★★ — 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.

★★★★★ — Nicole Smith

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.

★★★★★ — Luke S

Great team and great service.
