Accounting, lending and AI for Sydney businesses — Monday to Friday, 9:00am – 5:00pm
Sydney based · meet us in person or online
Most business owners run three separate relationships — one for tax, one for lending, one for whoever is meant to fix the systems. We do all three, so the advice actually joins up.

What we do
Services
Your loan application depends on your financials. Your tax position depends on your structure. Your capacity to grow depends on whether your team is drowning in admin. Treating those as separate problems is what costs you money.
Accounting
Compliance done properly and on time, plus the planning conversation most firms never get around to having.
Finance
Mortgage broking and business finance from a team that has already seen your numbers — so applications are clean the first time.
AI Implementation
We come into your business, find where the hours actually go, and deploy AI agents against the tasks with the fastest payback.
Why Balanced
We are a small, senior team. You deal with the person doing the work, not an account manager relaying messages to a back office.
Your broker does not have to chase your accountant for financials. Your accountant already knows what the loan is for. Nothing falls between the cracks.
Lodgement dates, settlement dates, BAS cycles. We run the practice on a scheduled job system so nothing sits in someone's inbox.
You should be able to explain your own tax position to your partner. If you cannot, we have not finished the job.
Our own practice runs on AI agents for reconciliation, review and reporting. We recommend what we have already put into production, not what we read about.
Registered tax agent 24768434, Australian Credit Licence 478031 held in our own right, and a member of the Institute of Public Accountants.
Trades, health and NDIS providers, professional services, property investors, family groups. Businesses where the owner is still in the business.
How it works
Thirty minutes. You tell us what is going on; we tell you honestly whether we are the right fit and what it would cost.
A written scope with a fixed fee. You know exactly what is included and what is not before anything starts.
Onboarding, data access, ATO agent transfer if needed. Then compliance runs on a schedule and lending runs to your settlement date.
Once the basics are clean, we look upstream — structure, tax planning, cheaper debt, and the admin that AI can take off your team.
Who we work with
We are not built for ASX filers. We are built for the operator who signs the invoices, worries about the BAS and wonders whether the next hire is affordable.

Questions
No. Plenty of clients only use us for tax and BAS, and plenty only come to us for a home loan. The advantage of having all three under one roof is that nothing gets lost between advisers — when your accountant and your broker are the same team, your lending application already has clean, current financials behind it.
Yes, we have offices and we do see clients face to face. We are at Level 10a, 6 Mount Olympus Boulevard, Wolli Creek NSW 2205 — a few minutes from Sydney Airport and on the Airport line. Come to us, we can come to you, or we can meet over video. Whichever suits.
Compliance work — tax returns, BAS, bookkeeping — is quoted as a fixed annual or monthly fee so there are no surprise invoices. Mortgage broking is generally paid by the lender, not by you, and we disclose every commission in writing before you apply. AI implementation starts with a fixed-fee opportunity audit, then you decide whether to build.
It takes one email. We send an ethical clearance letter to your current accountant, request your file, and handle the ATO agent transfer. You do not need to have an awkward conversation, and you do not lose your history.
It means we come in, watch how the work actually gets done, and find the handful of repetitive tasks that eat hours every week — quote follow-ups, invoice coding, client intake, report drafting, inbox triage. Then we build and deploy AI agents to do those specific jobs, measure the time saved, and train your team to run them. No strategy deck, no year-long transformation programme.
Yes. NDIS bookkeeping has its own rhythm — service agreements, plan-managed versus self-managed claims, price-limit compliance and payroll under the SCHADS award. We handle the bookkeeping and the reporting that comes with it.
A 30-minute call, no charge. Bring last year's numbers, a loan you are not sure about, or a process that keeps eating your week — we will tell you straight whether we can help.
