Is SMSF Property Investment Right For You?

SMSF lending works best for trustees with specific circumstances

Established SMSF

You have an existing SMSF with a balance of $200,000+ and regular contributions. You understand your fund's investment strategy and have professional advisors in place.

Long-Term Focus

You have 10+ years until retirement and can take a long-term view on property investment. SMSF property is a buy-and-hold strategy that works best with time.
