Transfer an existing SMSF
For existing SMSF trustees there often comes a time when for a number of reasons you decide to change your administistrator or accountant:
12 reasons to change administrators/accountants:
- Phone calls not returned promptly.
- Promises, expectations and agreed deadlines not met.
- Work not completed on a timely basis.
- Poor value.
- Proactive service not provided.
- Lack of personal chemistry and rapport.
- Mistakes and poor service.
- Difficulty being able to discuss any issues.
- Unexpected fees.
- Lack of technical knowledge.
- Limited resources and helpful guides
- Your SMSF has out-grown the administrator/accountant.
Many SMSF trustees stay with a poor administrator/accountant even though it causes them sleepless nights and costs them money. Why?
