An SMSF loan, or Self-Managed Super Fund Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement loan, allows your SMSF to borrow money to invest in property. With an LRBA, your SMSF can purchase a residential or commercial property while using the property itself as security for the loan. The SMSF repays the loan over time, using rental income and contributions from members.
While there are restrictions on the types of properties that can be purchased, SMSF loans offer flexibility in terms of property choices. You can invest in residential properties and commercial properties.. However, certain limitations apply, such as the property must meet the “sole purpose test” and residential property cannot be acquired from a related party. Different lending rules apply to different types of property.

While it is not mandatory to engage a mortgage broker for an SMSF loan, their expertise can prove invaluable throughout the process. A mortgage broker specializing in SMSF loans has in-depth knowledge of lenders, loan products, and the regulatory landscape. They can help you find the most suitable loan options, negotiate terms, and guide you through the application and documentation process, ensuring compliance and saving you time and effort.
