Finance
Compare low doc finance options for eligible self-employed applicants, ABN holders and business owners who may not have full financial documents available.
What Is Low Doc Finance?
Low doc finance is designed for eligible applicants who may not have full financial documents available at the time of application.
For self-employed applicants, business owners and ABN holders, traditional finance applications can sometimes be difficult if tax returns, financial statements or accountant-prepared documents are not current.
Low doc finance may allow lenders to assess an application using alternative documentation or simplified verification, depending on the lender, asset type, ABN history, GST status and overall applicant profile.
In some cases, if your ABN has been registered for more than 1 year, certain lenders may not require full supporting financial documents. This depends on lender policy and the strength of the application.
