An SMSF loan is a type of finance that may allow an eligible self-managed superannuation fund to borrow funds to purchase an investment property.
The borrowing is generally established through a Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement, commonly referred to as an LRBA. Under this structure, the lender’s security is usually limited to the property purchased with the borrowed funds.

Specialist Lender Access
We help you explore suitable finance options from our panel of banks, non-bank lenders and specialist SMSF lenders. Available options remain subject to lender policy, property acceptability, credit assessment and the proposed borrowing structure.
Suitable Loan Structuring
We assess the proposed loan amount, deposit position, fund liquidity, contributions, rental income and lender requirements to help identify a suitable lending structure. Independent financial, legal and taxation professionals should confirm that the SMSF structure and proposed investment comply with the fund’s obligations.
Transparent Loan Comparison
We make SMSF lending options easier to understand by comparing available interest rates, fees, loan features, lending criteria and borrowing requirements from our lender panel. This allows trustees to consider the finance options available to them before deciding how to proceed.
Complete Lending Process Support
From the initial borrowing assessment through to application, lender approval and settlement, we manage the finance process and communicate with relevant accountants, solicitors and SMSF professionals where required.
Our focus is to provide clear, structured and practical SMSF lending support while keeping our role limited to credit assistance.
Whether you are considering an SMSF residential investment property or commercial property purchase, MorFin Group can help you understand your borrowing position and explore suitable finance options from our lender panel.
MorFin Group does not provide financial, legal, taxation, investment or SMSF establishment advice. Trustees should obtain independent professional advice before proceeding with an SMSF property purchase or borrowing arrangement.
