Single Contract SMSF Compliant Property
When wanting to invest in a property using your SMSF and use borrowings – one may not enter into a two part contract where you buy the land and improve on the residential property. Meaning your choice of what to invest in using your SMSF have always been limited.
In steps “One Contract Property” (OCP), who sign the contracts with the land provider and the builder and enter into a single contract with you / your SMSF to provide you with a completed single contract property once built.
This is an amazing initiative allowing us to offer you the investor an incredible choice of what to invest in that could maximise your ROI for the SMSF.
Previously we would have to source a builder who was prepared to do this, and if we were lucky to find one they usually charged around $30k or so for the privilege.
Today we have the likes of a professional and reputable firm called One Contract Property which eliminates the need to find that rare builder who might do this if they had capacity. Builders today are exceptionally busy and avoid doing this for clients as it impacts their cash flow dramatically.
OCP deserve every cent they charge your SMSF and more, for coming up with this incredible initiative which also is compliant and acceptable under SMSF rules.
If you are wanting to secure a new build whilst having an incredible choice of location, reach out to us for further discussion and if you qualify we will comfortably refer you onto OCP.
By the way, they also have access to a lender who does not have the onerous hoops a bank makes you jump through when trying to secure finance for your SMSF. And they understand the value of the property and will tend not to under value it as banks tend to do.
We can even help you access SDA Property under the NDIS for your SMSF. Incredibly high yields, ideally suited to super, outperform any other residential property yield wise, allowing you to amass more wealth in your super than you could achieve through other property.
