How it works
-
Your SMSF selects a Residential or Commercial investment property to purchase, then sets up a property trust in which to purchase the property on its behalf
-
Your SMSF applies for the SMSF Investment Property Loan.
-
The property trustee pays the deposit and exchanges contracts.
-
If your loan is approved, at settlement the property trustee mortgages the property to Westpac and Westpac advances the loan.
-
Your SMSF trustee pays all legal costs and stamp duty.
-
Your SMSF collects rent, pays the usual outgoings on the property and makes the loan repayments. It manages the property in the same way as any other real estate investment.
-
The property is held in trust for the SMSF by the property trustee and once the loan is repaid, the legal title may be transferred from the property trustee to the SMSF, or the property may be sold.
