Here's a breakdown of what you can expect:

  • Borrow up to 95% of the property value with one or two years' tax returns:
    If you have been self-employed for one or two years and can provide your tax returns as proof of income, you may qualify to borrow up to 95% of the property value.
  • Low doc loans for self-employed borrowers with little to no income verification:
    As a self-employed borrower, you may qualify for a low doc loan, allowing you to borrow between 80% and 90% of the property value without extensive income verification.
  • Borrow up to 80% of the property value if self-employed for less than a year:
    If you have recently become self-employed and have less than one year of self-employment history, you may still be eligible to borrow up to 80% of the property value.

Will You Get Approved?

While most lenders typically require two years of tax returns and financial statements, we work with lenders who are more flexible. We have options available for self-employed individuals who can provide one year's tax returns or alternative methods of verifying income. Additionally, if you have recently started your own business within the same industry, some lenders may consider your application even without tax returns.

What Lenders Prefer:

When it comes to self-employed borrowers, lenders have certain preferences:

  • Self-contained properties with their own kitchen and bathroom are preferred.

  • Smaller blocks of units are also preferred.

Frequently asked questions

  • How Long Do You Need to Be Self-Employed to Qualify for a Home Loan?

While most lenders prefer self-employed individuals to have at least two to three years of self-employment history, we have options available for those who have been self-employed for only one year. If you have one year or more of self-employment history, contact us today at 07 5474 4100 or fill out our free assessment form to learn how you can get approved for a mortgage.

  • What If You've Been Self-Employed for Less Than a Year?

If you've been self-employed for less than one year, obtaining a home loan can be challenging. Most banks are hesitant to lend to individuals without tax returns to prove their income or for new businesses with financial uncertainty. However, one of our lenders can consider your income from your last job as proof that you can afford the loan. Based on this, you may be able to borrow up to 80% of the property value.

  • What If You've Been Self-Employed for One to Two Years?

If you've been self-employed for one to two years and have been working in the same industry for some time, we can assist you in finding a lender who can approve your loan. For example, if you were previously employed as a plumber for five.
