Coombe Smith Lifetime Property Accountants

We recently spent an hour with Ross discussing our portfolio. In that short time, Ross took the time to understand where we are at and what our goals are and then made a few suggestions that streamlined the administration of our portfolio, freed up equity AND saved thousands of dollars. Looking forward to our future professional relationship.

Ross and the team have been my accountant since 2015, the advice and direction given through these years has been second to none. Their knowledge in all areas (including assisting with overseas interests) has been a real benefit with structuring finances. Thoroughly recommend Ross and the team.

Ross and his team have been extremely helpful. In the short time we have been clients he has provided valuable advice that has setup our investments the best way possible. His knowledge of the property investment market is such an asset to us.

I had been searching for some time as to a reputable property accountant/advisor and happened upon a couple of Ross' videos online. A few points he made hit home so I got in touch for an initial advisory.Safe to say it was money well spent and we were able to flesh out some key questions and scenarios with Ross that I had as yet to find answers for. Highly recommended if you are needing advice, direction or wanting to bounce some questions and scenarios around with someone who has skin in the game and up to date extensive knowledge. Glad I made the decision to contact Ross, will be employing him in the future for sure.

Ross has been our accountant for several years now. He understands the property game and has a strong team around him. He balances pragmatism with creativity and always inspires confidence. We have come to value his input greatly.

I have been following Ross's posts on FB and his blog with great interest. His great knowledge, very helpful and proactive approach convinced me to have a remote consultation although I always preferred face to face meeting. It turned out much easier and better than I expected and saved my time and trip. He shares his spread sheets, together works on your numbers and explains. The system he uses for video call/meeting has very good HD quality and spread sheets looked very clear. I had my one our consultation with Ross from Wellington in July 2019. I gained much needed advice and guidance that will help my decisions. I look forward to working with Ross and his team in the future. Thank you Ross and team :)

I meet Ross for a one hour property advisory meeting. Ross provided with a well though out explanation that walked me though the recommended strategies for managing my property. We discussed my first rental property and I received solid straight forward advice from how to manage my accounts, expected returns, costs, expected tax returns, mortgage structure and repayment strategy.Valuable advice that I am glad to have received.

Ross Barnett at Coombe Smith have been absolutely fantastic. Ross has an extremely good knowledge of all property investment tax rules. He has helped us to manage our portfolio and given us some very sound advice over the years. We would highly recommend using Coombe Smith if you have property investments.

Ross is very professional, down to earth and has given us some great advice from a numbers perspective as well as making us think through all our future options. We had an hour discussion with him and we learnt more in that space of time than we have dealing with all our other accountants over the years combined. Highly recommended.
