Why Structure Comes Before Compliance

Structuring advice is high-stakes and irreversible.

The decision of which entity to buy the property in, or whether to set up a trust before or after you buy,
isn't something you can undo cheaply later. Get it wrong, and it can cost you tens of thousands, permanently,
with no way to undo it.

Daniel Li

Daniel leads a team of tax specialists with extensive experience in advising business owners and property investors.

Daniel has overseen thousands of tax returns and structures involving property and business, and he's built his team around a simple distinction: lodging a return is the easy part. The decision that actually protects a client's wealth is the structuring call made before that return is ever filed, and that decision is rarely something you can undo cheaply later.

He's worked inside the ATO, Big 4 firms, and specialist tax advisory practices, giving him a rare, complete view across compliance, audits, and structuring strategy, not just one piece of it. That's why Freedom Tax Advisory doesn't split a client's file across five different providers who've never spoken. Daniel's team sees the whole picture, property, business, and structure, working from one file, not fragments of one.

When Daniel signs off your tax structure, you're not getting a return checked for errors. You're getting a decision that's already been tested against everything that could go wrong with it, before it's permanent.

Why Experience Matters

10,000+ returns. Every structure. Every mistake, seen before.

Property tax and business tax both reward precision and punish generalists. After thousands of returns, we've seen the deduction that gets missed, the structure that costs more than it should, and the record-keeping gap that causes trouble years later - usually before our clients ever get there.

How We Work With You

Structured around your growth, not the tax calendar.

BEFORE YOU BUY OR START

Structure, set correctly from day one

Ownership structure and entity advice, so the decision is right before you settle or launch - not fixed afterwards.

WHILE YOU HOLD OR OPERATE

Compliance, handled year-round

Ongoing compliance, bookkeeping and payroll support, and depreciation schedule management, from the same team every year.

WHEN YOU SELL OR SCALE

Capital gains and growth, planned for

Capital gains tax advice at the point it matters most, and profit planning as your business scales - before the event, not after.

ANYTIME

A second opinion, when you need one

Reach out any time you're not sure your current structure or return is right.

Common Mistakes

Eight ways investors and business owners overpay tax.

01

Missed deductions

Interest, depreciation, repairs, travel, and equipment — missed line items add up every year.

02

Wrong structure

Sole trader, company, or trust — the wrong choice can cost tens of thousands over time.

03

Poor record-keeping

No clear separation of business and personal, or property income and expenses.

04

No depreciation schedule

Legitimate deductions go unclaimed every year a property is held.

05

Capital gains miscalculated

Cost base and discount eligibility are easy to get wrong at sale.

06

No PAYG instalment plan

Contractors and sole traders get caught short without active management.

07

A generalist accountant

Property and contractor tax handled as one of many client types, not the focus.

08

Under-contributing to super

Concessional contributions are one of the most effective tax and retirement levers available - and the most overlooked

Where Our Advice Ends

What we don't do.

—We do not provide financial product advice.
—We do not recommend specific investments or properties.
—We do not provide financial planning or wealth strategy advice.
—We do not arrange finance or recommend lenders.
—We do not provide legal advice.

Our work is limited to tax, structuring, and compliance. Property investors and business owners should seek licensed advice for financial, legal, and investment decisions.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Do you provide financial or investment advice on whether I should buy property?
No. We provide tax, structuring, and compliance advice only. Seek advice from a licensed financial adviser before making investment decisions.
Why does structure matter so much, more than just lodging on time?
Because the two carry completely different consequences. A late BAS or a missed deduction can be fixed next year. The entity you buy a property in, or whether a trust is set up before or after settlement, usually can't be undone cheaply once it's done. Lodging a return is the easy, low-stakes part. Getting the structure right is the decision that actually protects or costs you money, permanently, which is why we deal with it before compliance, not after.
Can you help if I own or plan to buy investment property?
Yes. Property investors are a core part of who we work with, whether you own one property or a full portfolio. We also work with business owners, medical professionals, tradies, and SMSF trustees, so if your situation spans both property and business, that's exactly the kind of client we're built for.
Can you take over my tax affairs from another accountant?
Yes. We manage the transition, including notifying your previous accountant.
Do you only work with clients at tax time, or throughout the year?
Throughout the year — structuring, compliance, and CGT advice all happen outside the standard tax season.
Are you CPA / Tax Practitioner Board registered?
Yes. Full registration details are available on request.
What's included in your fee?
Fees are flat and agreed upfront before any work begins — no hourly billing.
How experienced is your team?
Our Head of Tax Advisory has worked inside the ATO, Big 4 firms, and specialist tax advisory practices, and our team has collectively overseen thousands of returns and structures involving property and business. Several of our specialists are former ATO employees, which gives us direct insight into how returns and structures actually get reviewed.
What's the most common mistake you catch that other accountants miss?
Structure, more than anything else. Missed depreciation schedules, the wrong entity for a purchase, and trust distributions that were never properly documented are the three we see most often, and they're usually mistakes made by an accountant who isn't a specialist in property or business tax specifically.
What happens if my current accountant already got something wrong?
We review it and tell you plainly what's fixable and what isn't. Compliance mistakes, like a missed deduction or a late lodgement, can usually be corrected. Structuring mistakes, like the wrong entity for a property purchase, are often permanent, so the earlier we look at it, the more options you have.
Why do you only work with property investors and business owners, not everyone?
Because property and business tax rewards precision and punishes generalists. A firm that spreads itself across every client type can't keep up with the structuring detail that actually protects your money. We don't take on general tax clients so that every return we lodge and every structure we set up gets the same specialist attention.
Do I need to coordinate between you, my broker, and my property advisor myself?
No, and that's by design. Most investors end up with three advisors who've never spoken to each other, which is how structuring decisions get made without anyone seeing the full picture. We work from the same information as the rest of your team where possible, so your tax advice reflects your whole position, not one-third of it.
