Rayner Wallen has guided our business affairs at the Ōtoromiro Hotel in Governors Bay for 18 years. From mentoring and advice on the original purchase and set up of our Family Trust, Rayner has been a crucial partner in our continued success over this time. Our business has grown three-fold in the intervening years but has weathered some significant storms including the 2008 WFC, the Christchurch Earthquake events of 2011 and the current ongoing Covid-19 crisis. Whilst Rayner’s accounting ability has saved us considerable amounts of tax over the years, it is his partnership that has delivered us a robust and ongoing business concern.
Rayner Wallen has been my accountant since 2001. In that time he has made that part of my business work and be successful while I got on with what I do well. He has come up with accounting and taxation solutions in my personal and business areas that I would never have sorted. I trust him, and his personnel to be getting it right while I get on with creating something to account for. He has taken the stress out of accounting and tax for me. I highly recommend him.
When I was looking at buying the business in 2007 that I still now own, Rayner looked at the books & gave me confidence to purchase & pay the amount we did. He said “just pay it, you will over double what it’s doing now”. Rayner is always willing to listen to problems & give advice. Rayner has also owned his own other business’s in the past so he has knowledge of the real world, our business owners world. He knows how to talk real people’s language. If I was to look at buying another business, I would not do it without Rayner in my corner.
Rayner Wallen and his team have been providing accounting services for me for well over 20 years during that time starting off with one company my business interests have grown to include 6 other entities all of which Rayner has played an integral part in establishing and also does the accounts for. Rayner has always provided a great service with the experience and knowledge to get things done and offer good advice. Rayner and his team have a relaxed and straightforward manner, easy to talk to and good to deal with but are always professional and creative in their work and can deliver under pressure when needed. I have and would not hesitate to recommend Rayner and his team to anyone.
