About

Two locations,
one business vision

David and Genevieve Rea decided to make a “tree change” in July 2001 and have never looked back for too long at the big smoke of Sydney.

They moved their existing accounting practice out of Parramatta, acquiring a small practice in Springwood in the Blue Mountains and started enjoying the clean air and small business life.

It was a far cry from the taxation and commercial consulting work that David had been doing for large public companies in Sydney – but that provided a great foundation as they built the practice up over the years.

They even acquired a second small practice in Penrith in 2008.

Helping out business owners in the Blue Mountain area

“…expect strong personal and professional service at Rea & Associates.” I.K. Ellis APM (Springwood, NSW)

Between the Penrith and Springwood offices, David and Gen now run a trusted and well-established team of professionals, specialising in business, taxation and commercial consultancy for local businesses and professionals.

With extensive experience as a Chartered Accountant and a Diploma in Law, David’s commercial experience makes him well-positioned to help small business owners in the local region cover their advisory as well as tax and compliance requirements. He even occasionally works as an expert witness or forensic accountant for lawyers in legal cases and is a chair on two local business groups: Penrith Business Connect and Blue Mountains BRG.

Gen manages the accounting, bookkeeping, and superannuation services and ensures that the administrative side of the business runs like clockwork.

  • Beyond REA & Associates

    David and Gen are probably not your typical accountants.

    Gen enjoys tending to a small herd of dairy goats and loves to turn her hand at cheese and soap making! Her other passion is horse-riding (her own horses, of course) and she even enters dressage competitions.

    And David has a healthy obsession with the history of warfare and battle, and even plays strategy games at international competitions.

    In between times, you’ll find them engaged in more ‘standard’ pursuits like spending time with their three children and friends, at music events or the theatre, or in the gym to compensate for all that desk-sitting time.

    They also enjoy being part of the local community and take pride in being able to give something back.

A quick word from David…

Many of our clients initially came to us with tax issues. Of course, we can help them with that but, invariably we move into more strategic elements of the business and that’s where we can really provide the extra value to them.

Most tax specialists, bookkeepers, and accountants have a rather narrow spectrum of services…we can and do go a step further because of our broad experience in commercial and business matters.”
