HIVE Super
From establishing your fund to managing the ongoing compliance and reporting, HIVE Super takes care of the admin, so you can get on with using your super to work toward your property goals.
Plenty of people want to use their super to buy property. What stops them is everything around it, the setup, the paperwork, the ongoing compliance, and the fear of getting it wrong. That’s the part we take off your plate.
Uncertainty about how to establish the fund correctly so it holds up down the track.
Trust deeds, registrations, and record-keeping that stack up fast and never seem to end.
Ongoing ATO obligations, caps, and reporting deadlines that are easy to miss.
The annual independent audit to organise, chase, and coordinate every year.
An accountant, a broker, and an agent who don't talk to each other, leaving you to join the dots.
Too many conflicting opinions and no clear way to filter them.
No defined criteria for what actually makes a strong investment.
Fear of overpaying, buying in the wrong area, or missing the window.
No acquisition strategy, just browsing listings and hoping something stands out.
Limited access to quality opportunities before they hit the open market.
We handle the establishment of your Super Fund from start to finish, the structure, the trust deed, the registrations, and the borrowing arrangement, set up correctly the first time so nothing has to be unwound later. Where a decision calls for licensed advice, we’ll point you to the right professional before we proceed.
Once your fund is running, the work doesn’t stop, it just becomes ongoing. HIVE Super manages the day-to-day administration against a clear process designed to keep you compliant, audit-ready, and free of the paperwork.
Financial statements, member reporting, and record-keeping prepared and kept current, so your fund is always in order.
Ongoing ATO obligations, contribution caps, and reporting requirements tracked and lodged on time, every time.
The annual independent audit organised and managed on your behalf, with nothing left for you to chase.
Your fund's legally required investment strategy document prepared and kept current as a record, with the investment decisions themselves resting with the trustees and their advisers.
Suburb trends, growth indicators, rental demand, and long-term performance data, reviewed before any recommendation is made.
Condition, positioning, comparable sales, and investment suitability, assessed objectively, not emotionally.
Projected returns, cash flow, holding costs, and acquisition expenses, modelled clearly so you understand exactly what you're buying into.
Potential red flags, council overlays, structural concerns, or market risks, identified and addressed before contracts are signed.
A compliant fund is only half the picture. Once your Super Fund is ready, HIVE Acquire steps in to source, assess, and negotiate the property, drawing on national networks, off-market access, and research-led due diligence, so your fund transacts on an asset that’s been properly checked.
STEP 1
We start by understanding your goals, your super position, and your timeline, and we explain exactly how the setup and administration process works.
STEP 2
We map out the fund structure and what establishing it involves. Where suitability or financial questions come up, we point you to your accountant or licensed adviser before anything is set up.
STEP 3
We establish your Super Fund, trustee structure, trust deed, registrations, and borrowing arrangement, correctly and compliantly, ready to transact.
STEP 4
HIVE Acquire sources researched opportunities that meet your brief, including off-market options the public doesn't see.
STEP 5
Each property is assessed across market performance, financials, condition, and fund suitability, so you're deciding on facts.
STEP 6
We coordinate negotiation, contracts, lending, and settlement across the team so your fund transacts cleanly.
STEP 7
Settlement isn't the end. We manage your fund's ongoing administration, compliance, and reporting, year after year.
Setup, compliance, finance and property, finally working as one. That's the HIVE difference.
Super Fund administration lives or dies on the details. Every statement, lodgement, and deadline is handled accurately and on time, so nothing slips.
From your first Discovery Session to ongoing administration years later, one dedicated team manages every step. You stay informed without having to manage it yourself.
Setup, Finance And Property, Aligned
When HIVE Super, HIVE Lending, and HIVE Acquire work together, your fund admin, your finance, and your property acquisition run as one. Fewer delays, cleaner execution.
Frequently Asked Questions
A Self-Managed Super Fund can hold property as an investment, and can borrow to purchase it through a Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement. Whether that’s the right move for you is a question for your accountant or licensed financial adviser, and it’s a good first step before setting a fund up. What we do is handle the setup and ongoing administration once you’ve decided to proceed.
A Super Fund can invest in commercial and residential property, each with its own rules, for example, residential property held by the fund can’t be lived in or rented by you or related parties. We can walk you through how the administration works for different property types; decisions about what to buy sit with you and your advisers.
That depends on your circumstances and is best worked through with your accountant or financial adviser, who can weigh it against setup, borrowing, and holding costs. We’re happy to explain what the ongoing administration involves so you have the full picture.
The administration can be, which is exactly what we handle. HIVE Super manages the setup, compliance, reporting, and annual audit coordination so the administrative load stays with us, not you.
In most cases existing super can be rolled into a new fund. We process the rollover and manage the timing so your fund is ready to transact when the right opportunity appears.
Both. Once your fund is set up, HIVE Acquire sources, assesses, and negotiates the property, and HIVE Lending arranges the finance, so it’s one coordinated team from super to settlement.
It varies with your rollover timing and provider. Being set up and finance-ready before you start searching shortens the gap between finding a property and securing it. We’ll give you a realistic timeline in your Discovery Session.
