Selling property to put money in super

Was given this link and thought I'd forward it on as it makes some good points.

Your Property: Super dupe

You can buy residential property in super if you want to and it meets the requirements of the funds investment strategy.

Or are you referring to the issue of the residential property not being secured by a mortgage?

Dave,

You can own resi in a SMSF as long as it doesn't have any borrowings against it.

sorry guys, the point i was thinking was you can not sell a resi property you own to a SMSF, it doesnt pass the in house test, you can only buy resi properties from a non related party... this is what i was getting confused on...

Commercial property can be transferred in specie.

What about death benefit ETP's to non-dependedants - they pay 16.5% tax where otherwise they might not if held by your estate.
