Got an SMSF loan? Refinancing could save you thousands Rates from 7.17%

Just like with home loans, refinancing an SMSF loan to a better interest rate could save you thousands of dollars in repayments.

But SMSF loans can be tricky. They are more complex than a standard home loan and can come with fines if applications aren’t compliant.

But an experienced broker, just like us, can help you explore your options.

🏡 Ever thought about buying property through an SMSF? 🏡⁣
⁣
It's fair to say that property is one of Australia’s most popular investments. 😁⁣
⁣
And while investing in property is considered one of the attractions of a self-managed super fund (SMSF), it's tightly regulated and there are many rules you need to carefully navigate.⁣
⁣
That said, more and more people are doing so. In fact, almost 8,000 SMSFs were established in the September quarter - the second-highest number for the past five years.⁣
⁣
By and large, SMSFs mainly invest in commercial real estate, but they can be used for residential investment properties under certain conditions, too! 🏡⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So if you've been thinking of exploring your SMSF loan options but don't know where to start, get in touch with us today and we'll help you get the ball rolling! 😉⁣⁣

🤔 Has it been ten years since you last rode the property market wave? 🤔⁣
⁣
Or perhaps you're a permanent resident looking to crack the market?⁣
⁣
If so, you might be eligible for one of three federal government schemes that can help you buy a home with a smaller deposit (2-5%) while not paying lenders' mortgage insurance.⁣
⁣
Effective from 1 July 2023, all three Home Guarantee Schemes will be open to expanded to permanent residents, or Australians who haven’t owned a property in Australia in the last ten years. 🤯⁣
⁣
This can help those who’ve experienced hard times or relationship changes to get back into the market. 🏠⁣
⁣
But get in touch with us quick because spaces for the schemes are strictly limited. ⏳⁣

🏠 More people are starting to set their sights on the property market again 🏠

Even amidst rate hikes and inflation, Commonwealth Bank Household Spending Intentions Index data showed a 14.4% monthly increase in home-buying intentions in May.

And the Housing Industry Association announced that new home sales increased across Australia for the second month in a row in May. 😯

With increasing rents and low vacancies, renters are feeling the crunch. And understandably, many want to escape and get into the property market.

And we’re here to help. 🌈

There are a plethora of government schemes and grants that can be bundled together to help fast-track your homeownership goals. 🏡

We’ll help you work out your borrowing power, your loan options, and factor in what schemes you may be eligible for.
