Is it possible to obtain a loan and lend that amount to an SMSF?

Paul Rickard

I had a question regarding lending to SMSF. I have a fully set up SMSF investing in a property. Since the loan through the bank to property in SMSF is over 6.5%, I have borrowed a loan under my personal equity at 3.5% and would like to lend that to SMSF in order to save high interest rates.

 

Can I do that and if the answer is yes, what do I need to do get started on that and do you guys provides that service. If you do provide that service, how much do you charge.
