Thanks, will probably look at this further, make life easier.
A bit of an ouch at the price $770/$440 but it does sound very good.
I suppose the tax man will pay 1/3rd of it
I might give the demo a go.

from memory that is around $3-5k and imo is overkill for small developers. i must admit i only had a very brief look at it a couple of years ago
myf - $770 one off fee is effectively change dropped under the couch cushions when kept in context of the millions of dollars annually worth of developments we're undertaking.
Correct
It seems to do many things I'd like it to do BUT it only works on windows. I will have to get some Windows on my Mac and see if it will work.
Hi All
My girlfriend is using this package which she has recommended, used by banks and valuers, apparently around $2000-6000 depending on what you get. Not cheap

I have used both feastudy and estatemaster.
Estatemaster is definetely not worth the extra $1000+.
I would go for feastudy, however I've seen dev feas spreadsheets that take into account gst etc that are available for free online and do pretty much the same things the paid software does.

BTW DevFeas have said that the next version of it, v8 will be Mac and Windows. They currently have some Mac users who have it installed via a Windows Emulator.
You can run windows software on a mac. You can either run windows virtually on mac using Virtualbox: https://www.virtualbox.org/
or use applications like this: http://www.winehq.org/
As said before, I would stick with excel.
