SMSF Buyer's Agent: What We Do and Why It Matters

An SMSF buyer's agent is a licensed property professional who specialises in purchasing investment property through self-managed superannuation funds. Unlike regular buyer's agents, an SMSF buyer's agent understands the complex rules around SMSF lending, compliance, and property selection - and handles it all for you.

What Is an SMSF Buyer's Agent?

A buyer's agent works for you - the buyer - not the seller. They find, evaluate, and negotiate properties on your behalf. An SMSF buyer's agent takes this a step further by specialising in properties purchased through self-managed superannuation funds.

This matters because buying property through an SMSF involves specific rules that most buyer's agents aren't familiar with. The property must meet the 'sole purpose test,' the loan structure is different (Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement), and the compliance requirements are strict. Getting any of these wrong can result in ATO penalties.

That's where Delphi & Co comes in. Founded by Adel Pearce with over 12 years in property, Delphi & Co is a buyer's agent that helps everyday Australians build real wealth through property - with SMSF as our specialty.

Why Do You Need an SMSF Buyer's Agent?

Most buyer's agents help you find property but don't know SMSF. Most SMSF companies handle the paperwork but don't find property. Delphi & Co does both - in one place, with one team.

Without an SMSF Buyer's Agent

  • Juggle 4-5 separate professionals (accountant, lawyer, broker, buyer's agent, property manager)
  • Risk buying a property that doesn't meet SMSF rules
  • Navigate complex compliance alone
  • No ongoing support after settlement

With Delphi & Co

  • One team handles everything - SMSF setup, finance, property, settlement
  • Every property vetted for SMSF compliance and long-term growth
  • Named process (The S.I.M.P.L.E. Pathway) so you know what to expect
  • Annual reviews and ongoing support for life

Our Process: The S.I.M.P.L.E. Pathway

We created The S.I.M.P.L.E. Pathway because nobody should have to figure out SMSF property investment on their own. It's 6 clear steps from your first conversation to property ownership and beyond.
