What is SMSF Lending β€” and Why Does it Matter for Doctors?

A Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF) is one of Australia's most powerful wealth-building tools β€” especially for high-income medical professionals who want more control over their retirement savings.

Own Your Clinic Buy premises through your SMSF

An SMSF loan β€” structured as a Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement (LRBA) β€” allows your super fund to borrow money to purchase an investment property. The property is held in a separate trust until the loan is repaid, protecting your other super assets.

🏠
Residential & Commercial Property

Buy investment property or your very own clinic premises inside your SMSF β€” with all rental income flowing back to your super.

πŸ’°
Tax-Advantaged Growth

Super tax rates (15% accumulation, 0% in pension phase) mean your property investment grows far more efficiently than outside super.

πŸ”’
Asset Protection via LRBA

Limited recourse borrowing means lenders can only claim the single purchased asset β€” the rest of your SMSF is protected.

🩺
Buy Your Own Practice Premises

Doctors can lease their own clinic from their SMSF at market rate β€” paying rent to themselves to fund retirement.

Why SMSF Finance Is Ideal for Healthcare Professionals

Your high income and career longevity make you one of Australia's most attractive borrowers for SMSF lenders. Here's why this strategy works particularly well for medical professionals.

01

High Income = Faster Super Growth

Medical professionals typically earn well above average, enabling larger super contributions and faster accumulation of the fund balance required for SMSF property lending.

02

Own the Walls You Work In

Purchasing your clinic or surgery premises through your SMSF means every lease payment you make flows back to your retirement fund β€” not a landlord's pocket.

03

Powerful Tax Efficiency

Capital gains in super are taxed at just 10% (one-third discount on 15%), and in pension phase β€” zero. For high-income earners, this is a transformative difference.

04

Asset Protection from Litigation

Medical professionals face elevated professional liability risk. Superannuation assets are generally protected from personal creditors β€” making SMSF property a smart protective strategy.

05

Diversification Beyond Shares

Most super funds default to share-heavy allocations. An SMSF lets you add direct property to your retirement portfolio β€” a tangible, income-producing asset class you understand.

06

Specialist Lenders Compete for You

With ProBiz Finance's panel of 50+ lenders including specialist SMSF lenders, you gain access to competitive LRBA rates and structures simply unavailable through retail banks.

SMSF Lending FAQs for Medical Professionals

Most lenders require your SMSF to have a minimum balance of around $200,000 after the deposit contribution. For commercial property, some lenders set this higher. We'll assess your fund's current balance and advise on the most practical path forward.

Yes β€” and this is one of the most powerful SMSF strategies for medical professionals. You can purchase commercial premises through your SMSF and lease them back to your practice at market rent. The rent payments build your retirement fund instead of paying an external landlord.

A Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement (LRBA) is the legal structure used for all SMSF property loans. The "limited recourse" element means if the SMSF defaults, the lender can only claim the specific property β€” not other fund assets. This protects your broader superannuation savings.

Yes. The property must be held in a separate bare (custodian) trust until the loan is fully repaid, at which point it transfers to the SMSF. We coordinate with your accountant to ensure this is correctly established before application.

For residential SMSF property, LVRs of up to 70–80% are typically available. For commercial property (including medical practices), most lenders offer 65–70% LVR. Exact terms depend on property type, location, and your SMSF's financial health.

An SMSF can hold multiple properties, however each LRBA can only be used to purchase a single acquirable asset. Once one loan is repaid and the property transfers to the SMSF, you can then pursue another LRBA for an additional property if your fund's balance supports it.

SMSF loans take longer than personal mortgages due to the additional legal documentation required. Typically 4–8 weeks from application to settlement. We work with lenders who are efficient with medical professional SMSF applications and minimise unnecessary delays.
