Brett’s knowledge and expertise saved our start-up company in 2020, without his advice we would have lost everything due to COVID-19, however because he ensured we had the best business structure and direction, we have survived! Brett is a man of integrity, and this shows across his organisation, from the front desk to the bookkeeping team, the professionalism yet approachable staff is “Nulli Secundus – Second to None” Brett’s commitment to serving his clients goes above and beyond either through discussion or research, he has always provided us the clarity we require to make the best business decision and without his guidance at times we would have been at a loss. We have also welcomed the support and guidance of Christina Cirona, she is the backbone to our bookkeeping and has become an integral part of our team. Christina’s down to earth, calm manner has been the bridge to us making sense of the online software and bookkeeping process. As all entrepreneurs say surround yourself with quality people and that is exactly what we have done with the team from Hotchkin and Hughes, so do yourself a favour and call Brett and his team today!

As well as preparing my yearly tax returns, I have also sought longer-term assistance in informing strategies re. property divestment. to a schedule best minimising CGT exposure and the end result was, that through a planned and measured timeframe, employing those strategies, I was able to achieve my debt-free goals and financial independence before my 50th birthday.
