We provide accounting services (tax returns, BAS, bookkeeping, payroll and business financials), financial planning and advice under our own licence (AFSL 491754), and mortgage broking. Because all three are under one roof, your accountant, adviser and broker can work together on your situation.
We have two convenient locations: Ringwood East at 8 Railway Ave (a 3-minute walk from Ringwood East Station), and Frankston at 4/30-34 Skye Rd (formerly Paganoni Accounting), with free on-site parking.
Yes. We hold our own Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL 491754 — D&M Financial Services), which means our advice is not tied to any bank or product provider.
