What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Guidance on business structures, wealth creation and self-managed superannuation emerges as the recurring theme across feedback from clients of this Hobart accounting practice, with several reviewers describing how the firm's advice simplified complicated financial matters. Long-standing clients note that ongoing counsel on company set-up and restructuring has supported their growth, while others highlight assistance with asset protection, partnership succession and cashflow forecasting.

Named advisers including Bruno Palermo, Andrew Pearce, Nick Davey and David are repeatedly mentioned for presenting information clearly, responding promptly to requests and taking the time to understand individual circumstances. An aspect raised across a number of reviews is the personable and attentive manner of the wider team, alongside the efficiency of electronic forms and the consistency of communication on all matters. Clients who established a self-managed super fund describe the process as professional and well explained, and those working with the firm on investments speak of greater confidence in their family's future.

Insurance recommendations proved valuable when an unexpected health event occurred. Reviewers also value the practical planning and support offered to small business owners, with knowledge sharing that helps them improve their position. The depth of expertise across business development, tax and financial consulting is a common thread, and the willingness to listen to needs and expectations leaves clients intending to continue the relationship.

NICK DAVEY For those uncertain about consulting a Financial Advisor - don't hesitate to contact the Collins SBA Team of Financial Advisors. Our previous Collins SBA Advisor (Patrick) got the initial ball rolling, setting up our plan, and we moved over to Nick Davey upon Patrick's advancement within the Company. Nick made himself known, gave us his background history and then we got straight into business. We had written down several questions - most being answered as we discussed various topics. Nick was very easy to deal with. He was very clear & concise & with his quiet & sincere manner - we went away feeling very confident of being in good hands. Not only has he been doing what we discussed - but he promptly sent out a follow up email and his Staff sent out a follow up email re: Our Recent Progress Meeting. Through Nick & the Staff at Collins SBA - we feel we are indeed in good hands. Bill & Cathy Ling

Over the last 10 years, the amazing warm and friendly team at Collins SBA, has been an essential part of both my business and personal life. My family has benefitted from outstanding advice and support; home loan, business financing, life insurance, income protection insurance and accounting services. Most recently, Dave Woolford has been a vital help to my complex income protection claims. I am grateful and fortunate to have you in my corner. Thank you!

Collins SBA advisor recommended income protection and health events insurance for me and I was reluctant initially but went ahead. Taking his advice proved to be very wise - only a couple of years later I was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer at only 35 years old. The insurance the advisor had put in place for me was priceless - it enabled me to focus on recovering and my young family. I highly recommend Collins SBA and getting professional advice.

Helpful, professional and diligent. I find everyone at Collins SBA to be positive, polite and attentive. My company's affairs are in good hands. Bruno Palermo presents relevant information in a clear and useful way and is always responsive to requests for advice or assistance.

Collins SBA’s approach has been thoughtful, insightful and considered. Managing my investments with David has built my confidence that the path I’m taking will mean a secure future for my family. And it feels really good to be able to say that and genuinely believe it.
