Our past record

results

Over the years we have consulted farmers and businesses in every state and territory and in most cases arranged for their banks to write off a portion of the debts and sometimes refinance the balance elsewhere.

We have had a 100% of debts written off twice and as much as $5 million written of a single debt.
We have stopped numerous foreclosures and forced sales.
We have worked closely with highly respected Rural Financial Counsellors who provide a wealth of knowledge on farm grants, government funding etc. and are highly skilled at preparing financial data for farmers to provide to the bank.
By working with them we avoid duplication, cut costs and confer to solve problems.

INDEPENDENT

independent

Whilst assistance from authorities and counsellors who are funded by banks can be extremely helpful, in many ways they probably must choose the banks side in any dispute, and so not appropriate for serious negotiations with banks.

PRIVACY

As we are based well away from your local town or city, there is no chance of your private matters becoming a matter of local gossip.
The information you give us goes no further without your written express authority. We work for you exclusively. We never have and never will accept payment or commission from any bank.

Good morning Greg

Richard and I were so very fortunate to have found you on the Website. Our family had four weeks to leave our farm and everything we owned. From day one of our email communications we knew you were thorough. You stood up to our bank .....You picked us up during our lowest points and depths of despair.... You felt how we felt through the whole six months....Your strength in your writing and reporting allowed us to ‘BEAT THE BANK’… and we’ve never met you in person. Sincerely thank you for the work that you did, and the tools you gave us to move positively forward in life. We will be indebted to you until the day Rick and I retire.

Thanks for your recent assistance in taking on the banks and successfully negotiating a very positive result for my client. Without your specialist knowledge on bank debts and your skills at research and negotiation, our clients would have undoubtedly lost their home and their business. We were all impressed to have won the showdown with the bank and its high-powered lawyers. How nice to see the bank write off in excess of $400,000 and the home saved. Our clients are most grateful. Thank you again.

Robert CPA Sydney NSW

Thanks to GBAC helping us successfully fight off the bank and avoid certain bankruptcy we are now home owners once again. GBAC are the ultimate professionals in their field and truly care for their clients. We will be forever in their debt and would most definitely recommend their services to anyone facing challenges with their bank.
