“The new product certainly bolsters Homeloans’ SMSF offering and enables us to provide solutions depending on customers’ unique needs,” Homeloans’ general manager, sales, Greg Mitchell said.
“We have experienced steady growth in demand for our SMSF products and as such have created one with a low interest rate and higher LVR.
“The opportunities provided by the SMSF market are significant, and we are working closely with brokers to provide both the products and the training needed to understand how to maximise these opportunities.”
The Homeloans Classic SMSF product is funded by Homeloans’ Residential Mortgage Trust (RMT).
“This is the first RMT-funded product launch in more than five years – prior to the GFC,” says Mr Mitchell. “It demonstrates our ability to provide a range of products according to market needs and using a flexible range of funding options.”
