11 MAR 2025 By Robyn Tongol 1 min read Investor Strategy

The duo discuss the increasing popularity of SMSF, which they believe is driven by investors reaching borrowing limits outside superannuation and seeking new avenues for property investment.

Jack explains how SMSF borrowing differs from traditional loans, focusing on super contributions and rental income instead of personal income, which creates a separate borrowing capacity for property purchases.

The co-host also shares how younger investors can benefit from going through SMSF to build their portfolio, starting with residential properties before transitioning to commercial properties.

Additionally, they delve into the diversification that SMSF offers, including shares, cash, or business premises, supporting both retirement savings and business needs.
