Cloud Accounting - is it for your business?
Keeping your financial affairs up in the air is now considered the way of the future, not just plain old air but puffy white clouds. Cloud Accounting means no more accounting software installed on your computer. Instead your accounting software is installed on a central server and accessible anywhere you can get an internet connection. Cloud accounting packages offer something great for both the small business owner and their accountants. For the business owner it's an easy way to upload their financial data to an online package that is accessible to not only their bookkeeper & accountant but themselves, where ever they may be. They can run reports and get a good idea of where they are at quickly. For the accountant it is a fantastic way to see where your clients are at and to share all relevant data. It's also a solution to avoiding piles of paperwork arriving at the office to be sorted and uploaded and then sent back to the client. Find out more

Lending - loss of Stamp Duty Exemption
Under the newly-released budget, effective from 1st January 2012, the NSW Government's stamp duty exemption will only apply to first-time buyers purchasing a newly constructed home. This change will see buyers looking to purchase an established dwelling, hit with more than $20,000 in stamp duty for a home valued at $600,000. Provided the contract of purchase is entered into (i.e., the formal commitment is made to purchase) on or before 31st December 2011 the existing stamp duty rules will apply. This definitely will impact the first home buyer as an extra 5% will need to be saved and many plans for purchase will be pushed out to a later date or places on hold.
If purchasing in the next three months is on your agenda or that of your children, then come and speak with us. PrimeLending can assist with any of your lending needs. We have an intimate knowledge of the market and can save you time and money. Find out more Back to top
