Self managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) are an attractive investment vehicle to build long-term wealth. Buying property using a SMSF can have an array of benefits including a lower tax environment, capital gain concessions at retirement and leveraging funds through borrowed money.
Sound Property appreciates there are various rules and regulations when buying property inside a SMSF. We work closely with client’s licenced SMSF advisors such as Accountants and Financial Planners to find the right property that is compliant within the fund. It is important to know what you can and can’t buy, and what type of strategies exist to maximize the long term returns inside super.
