    Hi all, I'm new to posting on the forum but have read a lot of great info to date, thank you!!! :)

    I have a question that I hope someone might be able to help with. We're considering purchasing a commercial property within our SMSF using all SMSF cash funds. The offices we're closely looking at are between 35 and 50sqm. Does anyone know if there is a restriction on how small the property can be when purchased by an SMSF?

    No restrictions as far as I know.
    But a lender may not be willing to lend with certain size properties. with residential anything under 50sqm would need careful consideration. Not sure with commerical
