What is an SMSF Loan?

Self managed super funds (smsf) loans

An SMSF loan or Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement (LRBA) allows you to leverage the funds in your self-managed super fund (SMSF) to invest in assets such as residential or commercial property. The rental income from the investment property is required to pay off the loan, and any excess return is reinvested into the SMSF. SMSF loans are specifically intended for acquiring investment assets within the fund and must adhere to the SMSF regulations set out by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

How does an SMSF Loan work?

SMSF loans often have higher rates and are offered by fewer lenders. This is because if the fund defaults, only the property can be reclaimed by the lender—other SMSF assets or rental income cannot be used to repay the debt. Speak to one of our home loan specialists today to find the best SMSF home loan lenders for you.

Once the loan is fully repaid, the property’s legal title transfers to the SMSF. The fund can then receive rental income or sell the property, with proceeds deposited into the SMSF.
