Hi,
Where would be the best place to find information on how to make this possible?
Buy a Commercial block of land with my SMSF. Rent the land to a business which builds and operates a shop on the rented land.
The Commercial block is non specialized and will be income producing (rent). Now the business will be by owned by myself but I will not personally be benefiting from the land if I am paying market rent for the land.
Any thoughts on people to see or books to read that would help on specific example?
Cheers,
Andrew.
If the land is commercial, then provided that you will not be living in any building built on the land there is no conflict.
Depending upon which state that you live, you will need specific advice from legal and town planning with regards to the lease term so as not to appear as a sale to the end user (to avoid paying stamp duty) ie leases over 20 years (including 4 x 5 year options etc) can cause issues.
Yes it may be possible – but do you have the cash to build?
