SMSF Property Loan Springfield & Ipswich

Thinking about property inside your super fund?

SMSF lending has stricter rules than standard property finance, and not every lender offers it, so getting the structure right from the start matters.

Who this loan suits

An SMSF loan suits trustees of a self-managed super fund who want to buy property within super, either residential investment property or commercial premises for their business. These loans have strict rules, so they're best arranged alongside advice from your accountant or financial adviser. For property outside super, see our property investor loans page.

What lenders look at

  • A limited recourse borrowing arrangement (LRBA) structure with a separate bare trust
  • The fund's balance and liquidity after purchase
  • Fund contributions and rental income
  • The property type and its use
  • Trust deed and compliance with super rules

Documents you'll usually need

  • SMSF trust deed and bare trust deed
  • Recent SMSF financial statements and tax returns
  • Recent fund bank statements
  • Member contribution details
  • The contract of sale, naming the bare trustee correctly
  • ID for all trustees

Every lender is different, so we'll confirm the exact list for your situation before you apply.

Frequently asked questions

Who can help with an SMSF property loan in Springfield?

Zest Mortgage Solutions helps Springfield and Ipswich trustees compare SMSF property loans across our panel of 60+ lenders, working alongside your accountant or financial adviser. Only some lenders offer SMSF loans, and their deposit, fee and property rules differ, so comparing them early saves time. Mel and the team are based at Brookwater.

Can I live in a property bought by my SMSF?

No. Residential property owned by an SMSF can't be lived in or rented by members or related parties.

Can my business lease property owned by my SMSF?

Yes, business real property can be leased to a related business at market rent, subject to super rules.

Do I need advice before buying property through my SMSF?

Yes. We arrange the loan, but you should get advice from your accountant or financial adviser about whether it suits your fund.

Can I renovate an SMSF property with borrowed funds?

Borrowed funds generally can't be used to improve the property, though repairs and maintenance are treated differently. Check with your adviser.
