SMSF PROPERTY LENDING: WHAT THE NEW RULES MEAN FOR YOU 🏢
From 10 August 2026, new requirements apply to SMSF borrowing under Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangements (LRBAs).

So, what does this mean for you?

🏢 New SMSF property purchases are generally restricted to Business Real Property under an LRBA.
🔄 Existing LRBAs aren't banned, eligible existing arrangements can generally continue to be maintained or refinanced, even where the property isn't Business Real Property.
🏗️ Commercial property remains an option where the relevant requirements are met.

If you're considering an SMSF property purchase, refinancing an existing SMSF loan or commercial property finance, understanding the new rules and structuring your lending correctly is more important than ever.

Have questions about your SMSF lending options?

Could Your Profession Help You Avoid LMI?

Did you know that your profession could potentially give you access to specialist lending options and help you avoid Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)?

For eligible medical, allied health and other professionals, some lenders may offer higher-LVR lending without the usual LMI cost — potentially meaning a smaller deposit could be enough to get you into the property market sooner.
In our latest blog, we break down:

✔️ Who may be eligible
✔️ How professional lending policies can differ
✔️ What higher-LVR lending could mean for you
✔️ Why the right loan structure matters

Think your profession could unlock better lending options?

RBA holds the cash rate at 4.35% — but that doesn’t mean you should wait to make a move.

With rates remaining on hold, many borrowers are asking the same question: When will rates come down?

But waiting for the next rate cut isn’t always the best strategy. There may already be opportunities to improve your loan structure, reduce repayments, access better rates or review how your current lending is working for you.

The right strategy can make a difference before rates start moving.

👉 Read our latest blog where we break down what the RBA’s decision means for borrowers and why you don’t need to wait for a rate cut to review your mortgage.
