- When buying a property through an SMSF, the fund is required to pay 15% tax on rental income from the property. On properties held for longer than 12 months, the fund receives a one third discount on any capital gain it makes upon sale, bringing any capital gains tax liability down to 10%.
- If the property is purchased via a loan, the interest payments are tax deductible to the fund. If expenses exceed income there is a taxable loss that is carried forward each year and can be offset on future taxable income.
- Once trustees start receiving a pension at retirement, any rental income or capital gains arising in the fund will be tax free.
- If a loss on your property, any tax losses cannot be offset against your personal taxable income outside the fund.
- If significant improvements or renovations to the property, this is allowed but must be funded by available cash already held within the super fund and not by the loan or borrowed money.
- We will not support a transfer or a loan feature for this first iteration.
