Your SMSF can now borrow to buy land and build a house on it. We offer an innovative solution to overcome the superannuation laws that only allow the use of borrowed funds to purchase a single acquirable asset.

Increase Your SMSF Investment Opportunities
There are very good reasons why the superannuation law regarding limited recourse borrowing arrangements (LRBA) is so strict — it’s ultimately to protect your fund’s assets. But when it comes to borrowing to purchase an asset, these restrictions can limit your investment opportunities by only allowing you to buy a single asset — meaning house and land packages are out of the question. Until now!
Borrowing for a house and land package is traditionally made up of two contracts — one for the purchase of the land and one for the construction loan — meaning it’s off-limits for SMSFs. We solve this by entering into a two-part contract to purchase the land and engage your builder on your behalf, while you enter into a one-part contract with us.
Here’s how you can expand your investment portfolio with us
Step 1
The SMSF selects the land and builder. We take care of the loan and facilitate the conversion of the two-part contract into a legally compliant one-part contract.
Step 2
The SMSF enters into the one-part contract with us by paying a deposit. We purchase the land and engage the builder to construct the building.
Step 3
Once the construction is complete, the SMSF pays us the balance with the loan that we arrange for you. The property is then transferred to the SMSF with a single contract making it legally sound.

One-Part Contract Explained Removing Investment Barriers
Superannuation law allows SMSFs to borrow funds to purchase investments on the condition that a single asset is acquired. This means house and land packages have been out of reach for SMSFs due to the nature of the finance contracts — the loan contracts come in two parts: one for the land and one for the construction. We are now able to act as an intermediary to convert the two-part contract into a one-part contract for a single asset. We convert the house and land into one asset so you can have more flexibility with your investment property choices.

House & Land Packages to Fund Your Retirement
By building the right house in the right area and strategically optimising your house and land purchase, your SMSF could be hundreds of thousands of dollars larger by the time you retire.
Why can’t I purchase a house and land package in my own name, then transfer it to my SMSF once it’s built and become a single asset?
This scenario breaches superannuation laws as an SMSF cannot acquire assets from a member.
Why does the property need to be a single asset or one-part contract?
SMSFs are permitted to borrow funds to purchase investments, but to protect any other assets of the fund, the loan is classified as a limited recourse borrowing arrangement (LRBA). An LRBA works by holding the single asset in a separate trust as security for the loan, so if the SMSF defaults on their loan, only the asset funded under the LRBA can be taken by the lender. For example, if your SMSF purchased land with a loan, the land is held in a separate trust. If the SMSF then built a property on the land but defaulted on the loan, the lender will have legal ownership over the original asset — being the land — that now also contains a house. The SMSF would lose all money that had gone into building the house. This example demonstrates why improvements are restricted for any assets under finance.
What if I can’t get a loan once the property has been built?
To remove risk for you, finance for your SMSF loan is guaranteed at the time of signing, with an agreed valuation.
