How We Support Your Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF)
Managing your own super can offer more flexibility and control, but it also requires careful planning and ongoing responsibility. We help you understand what’s involved, assess whether an SMSF suits your goals, and build a structure that supports long-term wealth and retirement outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is an SMSF right for me?
An SMSF can offer more control and flexibility, but it isn’t suitable for everyone. It’s best suited to people who want greater involvement in how their super is invested and are comfortable taking on the responsibilities of being a trustee. We help you assess whether an SMSF aligns with your goals, risk appetite and financial position.
What are my responsibilities as an SMSF trustee?
As a trustee, you are responsible for managing the fund in the best interests of all members. This includes complying with super laws, keeping records, arranging annual audits, lodging tax returns and following your fund’s investment strategy. We guide you through these obligations so you know exactly what is required.
Can my SMSF invest in property?
Yes, SMSFs can invest in residential or commercial property under specific rules. It’s important to ensure the investment meets the sole purpose test, follows borrowing regulations (if applicable) and fits within your overall strategy. We help you understand your options and ensure your SMSF remains compliant.
How does an SMSF investment strategy work?
Your SMSF must have a documented investment strategy that outlines your goals, risk tolerance and how your assets will be diversified. We help you create a compliant, practical approach that aligns with your long-term retirement objectives.
Do I still need professional help if I run an SMSF?
Most SMSF trustees choose to work with planners because managing a fund involves ongoing reporting, audits, investment decisions and legal responsibilities. We provide guidance across setup, compliance, administration and strategic planning so you can run your SMSF confidently and efficiently.
What happens to my SMSF when I retire?
As you approach retirement, your SMSF can shift from accumulation to pension phase. This allows the fund to pay you income streams and may offer tax advantages. We help you structure this transition and ensure your SMSF continues to support your lifestyle throughout retirement.
