Every day, the media carries stories about property prices.
Watching and commenting on the market has become a national sport. Wayne Armistead goes beyond the headlines and the fake news, to deliver some timely facts.
Property ownership is still the Australian dream.
It’s never too late to invest in property.
Negative gearing and current low interest rates allow purchasers to invest in
property, at a minimal cost.
Whether you are young or old, in the city or the bush, let Plain Speaking Wayne show you how you can purchase property.
Cash flow is the life blood of any farm or business.
Often banks don’t understand this or the reality of businesses whose cash flow ebbs and flows from year to year. Based in rural Victoria, WBA Consultants understand life on the land and can help with finance and funding, pending getting the correct structure in place.
Corporate Loans are traditionally difficult to fund.
Sources of investment are often tied up or offered at above market rates. WBA Consultants can help with Corporate Loans. The first step is to conduct a Health Check of the business. Once that is done, and any pitfalls are identified, it’s time to move to the next step.
Purchasing Investment property in Australia is known by many to be a very safe form of investing.
Many Australians, even those on a lower income can afford to participate in property investing and reduce the amount of income tax they pay. Because of negative gearing, and current low interest rates, it allows the purchaser to invest in property at a minimal cost. Eventually, it may be possible
for those with multiple properties to achieve a nil tax debt over time.
If you would like to use industry leading software to manage your debtors, creditors, payroll, rostering and project management WBA Consultants will ensure that you have the best software available. Andrew has a wealth of experience using accounting software to take the stress out of “bookwork” and make your life easier and more efficient

Free Money for your club or group
Sporting and Community groups
For sporting and community groups, funding from government departments can be the difference between making ends meet and facing an uncertain future.
It’s no longer enough to just submit a letter or attend a meeting to get funding.
Grants are becoming more accountable and need to tick a number of boxes before being greenlit.
For organisations that don’t want to leave their funding to chance…
Wayne Armistead via WBA Consultants offers a grant writing service that is focused on successful documentation getting State and Federal Government Departments to provide. Wayne is so sure of success, he offers his time on a ‘no win/no fee basis”.

What a wasted opportunity. This perspective gives Wayne a unique insight into what funders are looking for, and in teams of sporting organisations, makes his available guy to have on your side.
Give Wayne a call to discuss your next grant proposal. Let him show you how professional proposals can obtain funding and give you some options you may not have considered. What have you got to lose?
