Testimonials
I attended the GRA function last night - it was excellent, and goodness your knowledge is like an encyclopaedia! Phenomenal. We have already had an initial free consult with John Rowe, have attended one of Matthew's info evenings, and are already booked for Property School. I've read Tax Structures and am reading Property 101. We are very interested in moving to you for accounting also - our current accountant is lovely, and his fees are very low, but the more I'm learning, the more I'm realising this sweet man has oftentimes not steered us in the best directions, and definitely never asset structured us properly - and that is all in the plans to get sorted thx to getting to know GRA. - Tat & Trip - June 2016
