I would highly recommend Michael for any accounting needs. He was extremely helpful and very prompt in his response time. He helped me out with my personal tax return and also with more complex questions I had regarding the share match scheme my employer offers. I will definitely be returning for all of my tax needs in future.

Rebecca Franklin ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Recently moved my business over to Michael at Skyways Accountants. He was very receptive to taking on a new client and worked well with my outgoing accountant to move all preexisting information across. He was very responsive to my questions and getting the return completed to meet an ATO deadline. Would definately recommend Skyways Accountants for all your accounting needs.

Recently engaged Michael to help with my video production sole trading business. Definitely would engage Skyways again, as he is super responsive and was quick to help file my taxes. In terms of pricing he is upfront and gives a flat quote (no surprises!) for his services. Honestly I feel like I am getting a lot more than I paid for. Thanks Skyways for the top notch service!

  • What are 7 reasons Blackstone 4304 a great place to run a business?

    Blackstone 4304, a quiet suburb in the Ipswich region of Queensland, is an often-overlooked gem for business owners seeking affordability, growth potential, and community engagement. Here are 7 compelling reasons why Blackstone is a great place to run a business:


    1. Affordable Entry Point for Business Setup

    Blackstone offers some of the most affordable commercial and residential property prices in the Ipswich area. For startups and small business owners, this means lower overheads for retail space, offices, or home-based operations—freeing up cash flow for growth and marketing.


    2. Proximity to Major Arterials

    Located near Cunningham Highway and Brisbane Road, Blackstone provides quick access to Ipswich CBD (less than 10 minutes) and Brisbane (about 40 minutes). This connectivity allows businesses to service nearby industrial hubs and residential areas with ease.


    3. Emerging Residential Growth

    Blackstone and its surrounding suburbs (like Silkstone, Bundamba, and Booval) are experiencing steady population growth driven by affordable housing and suburban expansion. A growing population increases demand for local services, retail, healthcare, and trades.


    4. Opportunities in Underserved Markets

    Unlike more commercialised suburbs, Blackstone has less competition, creating a gap for essential businesses like convenience stores, allied health providers, home services, and mobile professionals. It’s ideal for entrepreneurs who want to become the go-to local provider.


    5. Close to Industrial and Trade Zones

    Blackstone is situated close to Swanbank, Redbank, and Bundamba industrial areas, making it an attractive base for businesses in transport, logistics, warehousing, and trades. You get the advantage of a residential postcode with nearby access to major employment centres.


    6. Community-Led Growth and Support

    Blackstone is known for its tight-knit community and historical charm. Local events, schools, and churches foster strong relationships among residents. Businesses that engage with the community—through sponsorships, events, or social media—can build long-term brand loyalty.


    7. Low-Competition Digital Landscape

    Many businesses in Blackstone still operate offline or with minimal digital presence, giving new entrants the chance to dominate local SEO, Google Business listings, and social platforms with relatively little effort. This creates a strong opportunity for fast visibility and lead generation.
