THE PURE PROPERTY PODCAST: SMSF is gone. Is commercial property the new strategy?

SMSF residential lending is off the table, but investors aren't out of options. As the rules shift, commercial property is emerging as a new pathway to keep portfolios growing. On The Pure Property Podcast, Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop are joined by Aaron Findlay to discuss the SMSF lending changes and the rush from investors trying to secure residential deals before the deadline. The trio look at the surge in investor activity, why the lending changes are forcing investors to rethink their strategies, and how commercial property is gaining attention as a potential alternative. They also explore the appeal of commercial property, including its income potential, different management demands, and opportunities for business owners to hold premises through their SMSF and lease them back to their own business. The conversation also covers the importance of understanding leases, conducting thorough due diligence, and looking beyond the rush to secure a deal, particularly as investors navigate a rapidly changing lending landscape.
