If you’re a Western Sydney resident looking to take the next step in taking charge of your finances, an SMSF (Self Managed Superannuation Fund) might be for you. SMSFs are designed for individuals who want to control their own Superannuation fund by choosing how their money is invested.
At Hurley & Powell Accountants, we’re able to guide you through the process of setting up an SMSF and teach you how to best use it long-term. We understand that Superannuation can be confusing. Setting up a Self Managed Super Fund is something you’ll want to get right so that you can have confidence in your finances when the time comes to retire.
Helping Western Sydney residents with their SMSF
Western Sydney is a large, diverse and expansive region, stretching from the busy Parramatta out to The Hawkesbury, Penrith and Southern Suburbs. It’s an energetic, vibrant and idyllic location that combines the convenience of residential living while still being surrounded by nature reserves and cultural centres and is home to many individuals who may wish to take control of their Superannuation by setting up an SMSF.
If you’re a Western Sydney resident who wishes to take this step, the team of SMSF Accountants at Hurley & Powell can help you. They will ensure your Super Fund is set up correctly and in a way that helps you as you head towards achieving your financial goals.
Our SMSF Western Sydney Process
If you’re interested in opening a Self Managed Superannuation Fund, the first step is to determine if it’s the right option for you. You can do this by discussing your current situation and goals with your trusted financial planner. If you’re unsure who to see, we’re able to refer you to someone who can help you out.
Once you’ve determined that an SMSF is a good fit for you, give us a call and we’ll book an appointment where we can walk you through the whole process. We will establish the fund, guide you in the administration of the fund, prepare the annual tax return and arrange the annual audit of the fund.
