Self-Managed Super Fund Property Investment

MAKING YOUR SUPER FUND WORK FOR YOU — NOW!

With a Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF), you have a greater range and choice of investments than with a managed industry fund. This includes being able to purchase investment property by meeting certain conditions.
Property purchased through an SMSF can’t be lived in by you, the other trustee or anyone associated with the trustees – regardless of how distant the connection. Many Australians seek a retirement investment strategy with larger control over their finances. In that case, you may want to consider setting up a self managed super fund to buy property to invest your money in the direction you want. An increasingly popular choice for Australians in recent years, SMSFs are often used to buy investment properties.
A self managed super fund also can’t be rented by you, the other trustee or anyone associated with the trustees. In any case, buying a holiday home in your SMSF and living there during the summer isn’t allowed.
Furthermore, you can’t put an existing residential investment property that you’ve got into an SMSF – either by way of the fund purchasing it at market price or contributing within the cap limits.
A self managed fund can even use borrowed monies to get one asset, or a set of identical assets that have an equivalent market price. Through Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangements (LRBA), they are driving the recognition of property purchases in SMSFs. This specific method involves the SMSF trustees receiving the beneficial interest within the purchased asset, while the legal ownership is persisted trust. The upside is that, with an LRBA, your whole super fund isn’t in danger if the loan is defaulted. There also are restrictions on the way a debtor can recover their funds.
