Common Questions

SMSF Loan FAQs

Answers to the questions Sydney clients ask us most about SMSF property lending.

What is an SMSF property loan?

It's a loan that allows a self-managed super fund to borrow money to purchase an investment property under a limited recourse borrowing arrangement (LRBA). The property is held in a separate trust, and the lender's recourse is limited to that asset if the loan defaults.

Can my SMSF buy residential or commercial property?

SMSFs can purchase both residential and commercial property, subject to superannuation rules. Commercial premises used by a related business have specific allowances. We help you find lenders comfortable with your intended purchase and work with your advisers on suitability.

Do I need a financial adviser or accountant involved?

SMSF borrowing involves important legal, tax and compliance considerations, so we strongly recommend working with your accountant and a licensed financial adviser. Our role is to arrange the lending; we coordinate closely with your professional team.

How much can an SMSF borrow?

Borrowing capacity depends on the fund's assets, contributions, rental income and the lender's criteria. SMSF lenders typically require a larger deposit than standard loans. We'll give you a realistic picture based on your fund's position.

Is SMSF lending more complex than a normal home loan?

Yes — there's more documentation, stricter lender criteria, and additional compliance steps. That's exactly why having an experienced broker manage the process makes a meaningful difference.

Do you arrange SMSF loans across Sydney?

Yes. We assist SMSF trustees across Sydney, including the North Shore, Hills District, Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, Northern Beaches and Parramatta, and elsewhere in NSW.
