Plan with precision

Business advisors in Sydney

Optimise your structure and minimise stress. Making the right decisions early is crucial to your financial outcomes.

Ace Biz advisory helps business owners across Australia choose and refine the right structure — company, trust, partnership or a mix — so they protect assets and keep tax efficient as they grow. We cover structuring and restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, due diligence, valuations and exit planning. It's for founders facing a big decision: starting up, scaling, buying, selling or restructuring.

Overview

Advisory that looks forward, not back

When it comes to advisory, making the right decisions is crucial for optimising your financial outcomes. Navigating tax and structuring shouldn't be a source of endless anxiety.

We guide you to enhance your tax efficiency while minimising worry — from the entity you choose today to the way you eventually exit.

Our SIS framework

Situation + Intention = Structure

SIS — our Simplified Investment Strategy — is how we get the tax structure right from the start. In our experience, most property and business structures are set up without proper regard to the owner's circumstances or plans, and that's what leads to unnecessary tax and costly restructures later. We start with your situation and your intention, and let those decide the structure.

S

Situation

Your circumstances that drive the tax outcome — marginal tax thresholds, PAYG vs business income, family composition, your existing portfolio, borrowing capacity, land-tax position and asset-protection needs.

I

Intention

What you plan to do — hold for the long term or develop and sell, primary residence or investment, estate planning or restructuring. This decides whether gains are taxed as capital (with the CGT discount) or as revenue, and where GST applies.

S

Structure

The entity that fits — individual, company, unit trust, family trust or SMSF — chosen for the tax rate, access to the CGT discount, land tax, GST and asset protection that suit your situation and intention.

A tax lens — not financial advice. SIS is about structuring for tax outcomes. We're registered tax agents, not financial planners, so we focus on the tax and structuring side and work alongside your financial adviser. The right structure always depends on your circumstances, and we'll confirm exactly what applies to you.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Which business structure is right for me — sole trader, company, trust or partnership?

It depends on your goals around tax, asset protection, growth and how profits are shared. We assess your situation and recommend the structure that protects your assets and stays tax-efficient as you grow.

Can I change my structure later as my business grows?

Yes. Restructuring is common, and some restructures qualify for tax rollovers or concessions that defer or reduce tax. We plan the transition to keep cost and disruption to a minimum.

When should I start planning to sell my business?

As early as possible — ideally well before a sale. Getting the structure and the small business CGT concessions right early can make a real difference to your after-tax proceeds.

Do you help when I'm buying a business?

Yes. We run financial due diligence on the target so you understand its real performance, risks and tax position before you commit.

What does a business advisor do?

A business advisor helps you make the big financial decisions well — the right structure, a realistic business plan and budget, funding, growth, and buying or selling. Because we are also your accountants and tax agents, our business advice comes with the tax outcome worked out.

Do you advise startups in Sydney?

Yes. We help founders in Sydney and across Australia choose a structure, register the business, set up Xero and plan cash flow before the first sale, so the business starts on the right footing.

Where are your business advisors based?

Our business advisors work from our offices in Norwest and the Sydney CBD, and advise business owners across Sydney — including Parramatta, the Hills District and the Northern Beaches — as well as clients Australia-wide online.
