* You are able to invest in property through your SMSF, which you cannot do through a traditional super fund.
Why property in a SMSF?
The main advantages of purchasing property through a SMSF are tax related.Any rental income is taxed at 15%, while capital gains are taxed at 10%; these rates are likely to be much lower than your marginal tax rate.
Furthermore, if you hold the property until after you retire (when your super fund moves into the pension phase), you will not be required to pay any tax on ongoing rent, or capital gains if you sell the property. For this reason, property investment within a SMSF may be suited to those who plan to retire in the short- to medium-term.
