    So in my case I would like to buy a 42sqm office for 190k and you are suggesting I may be able t secure 70% LVR and use the balance out of my SMSF, plus have my wife’s company rent the office from the Trustee.

    Yes as long as the security is acceptable you should be able to get 70% lvr.

    Hello. From the research I have done in the last few weeks, you can borrow 65-75% of the purchase price/value. Your problem will be a small number of lenders to choose from given the low value of the loan. Many will only look at loans $500k+, others $250k+. At sub $200 there are only a small handful of lenders writing loans but most will do 65%, some 70% and at least one will do 75% (subject of course to other criteria).

    Ian,

    This may not be prudent. All the trust's assets would be tied up in the one property and there would be no diversification so it could be argued the trustee is not investing responsibilily. So, make sure you get some advice regarding this – it may be possible considering the future contributions expected from members.
