The client

A property purchase through a new fund

The client was a PAYG employee looking to purchase rooming accommodation through her newly established self-managed super fund (SMSF). She was relying on a single employment income.

The challenge

Limited income and superannuation

The client had a limited amount of superannuation and a tight income position. The lending needed to fit those constraints while supporting the proposed property investment.

Our approach

Matching lender policy to the client’s position

We drew on our understanding of multiple non-bank lender policies and our relationship with a buyer’s agent to secure SMSF funding around the client’s income position.

01.

Non-bank policy

02.

Buyer’s agent relationship

Drew on an established relationship as part of arranging the funding.

03.

Income and loan structure

Shaped the lending around the client’s tight income position.

The outcome

Funding secured to make the purchase possible

The client secured SMSF lending at a 55% loan-to-value ratio (LVR) over 30 years. The borrowing capacity achieved under the selected lender’s policy made the purchase possible.
