Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSFs) are one of the most powerful wealth-building tools available to Australians. With the right strategy, an SMSF can purchase both residential and commercial property, creating long-term growth and retirement security.

At Brampton Finance, we are recognised experts in SMSF lending. Whether you’re considering your first property inside super or expanding your portfolio, our specialist team can guide you through every step — from lender selection to structuring finance for compliance and tax efficiency.

Why SMSF Property Finance Matters Today

In 2025, SMSFs continue to play a critical role in retirement planning. With more than $900 billion in assets held by SMSFs across Australia, property remains a highly popular investment choice. Rising demand for commercial space, strong rental yields, and the ability to directly control investments make SMSF property purchases increasingly attractive.

Benefits of SMSF Property Finance

1. Direct Control Over Your Investments

SMSF property purchases allow trustees to take charge of their retirement strategy. Unlike managed funds, you decide exactly which property to acquire.

2. Leverage Superannuation Savings

SMSFs can borrow through a Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement (LRBA), enabling funds to purchase property that would otherwise be out of reach.

3. Strong Rental Returns

Commercial property: Rent can often be paid directly by your business to the SMSF at market rates — a tax-effective strategy that builds super faster.
Residential property: Provides stable, long-term capital growth and diversification within your fund.

4. Tax Advantages

Concessional tax rates within super (15% in accumulation phase, 0% in pension phase).
Potential capital gains tax discounts after holding for 12 months.

5. Asset Protection

Assets held within an SMSF are generally protected from personal creditors, giving additional security to trustees.

Residential vs Commercial SMSF Property

✅ Residential Property

Long-term capital growth potential.
Diversifies your SMSF portfolio.
Cannot be lived in or rented to related parties.

✅ Commercial Property

Highly tax-efficient when leased to your own business.
Strong cash flow through rental income.
Allows business owners to build wealth inside super while retaining business premises control.
