There are a number of optiosn available to you.
1. The standard option which is establishing the LRBA with a bare trust and obtaining the loan. The bare trust will be the owner of the property with the SMSF nominated as a beneficiary. Generally this all needs to be established prior to the contract being finalised. Many financial advisers will be able to refer you to a specialist SMSF adviser or lawyer who can use an off the shelf trust deed and document solution, which are quite common in the industry. When the loan is paid off the bare trust is then wound up and the property is transferred to the SMSF.
2. You could borrow the money and purchase the property yourself and later on, as it is a commercial property, either sell it to the SMSF or transfer the property to the SMSF by way of an in specie transfer (although this is subject to contribution caps, which if breached will trigger additional taxation consequences).
3. You could borrow the money yourself and then on lend it to the SMSF as part of the LRBA.
I agree with Mike regadring the payment of stamp duty and there would never be Sd payable on transferring an asset out of the SMSF to the bare trust as Mike has pointed out the LRBA can only be used for the acquisition of a new asset SMSFs are unable to borrow against existing assets that they own or use those assets as security.
