A full service SIPP you can, yes. I believe the majority of folks don't realise that the usual retail platforms are really a basic stripped back SIPP to cater for most retail investors. A full service SIPP that accommodates direct commercial property holdings cannot be found in the typical fund supermarket type place where most folks look for a SIPP. Full service SIPP is typically pretty bespoke, which means expensive. Hence the success of the fund supermarkets in this space.

Indeed. In fact it has some commonalities with SSAS in the cost.
But it doesn't need a trust and is designed for one person not a group of people.

Higher costs and pointless if you're a one man band.
