Low Doc Home Loans Broker
Low Doc Home Loans, what are they? To put it simply, there are times when standard forms of income verification don’t tell the full story, and in these instances, a Low Doc loan could be the answer. Low Doc assessments allow applicants to prove their income using more current forms of verification, such as recent BAS statements, Account statements, and/or Accountant’s letters.

Our Low Doc Home Loan Promise
Since Low Doc Loans typically come with a higher price tag than other ‘Fully Assessed’ home loan products, we’ll want to look at the whole picture to make sure we recommend the cheapest product available. Lenders that offer a Low Doc Loan solution will tier their interest rates and fee structures based on their own unique risk profiling guidelines. It’s our job to find you the lender, product, and risk profile with the cheapest price tag and best ongoing terms. In some cases, there may be more suitable product available through a business lending channel which offers a cheaper product, and accepts interim financial statements, or even business projections to approve your loan. Our finance professionals are specialists in the Self-Employed lending space. One way or another, we’ve got you covered.
Sunshine Coast Brokers That Care About Your Financial Success
Due to the higher cost associated with Low Doc Loans, these products are generally considered to be a ‘Band Aid’ solution, and it’s likely you’ll want to re-finance your loan to a cheaper product as soon as your standard income verification types become ‘assessable’. This may require waiting to finish out your current year of trading, or even waiting for the sale of a property. Either way, we’ll diarise these milestones and connect with you when it’s time to revisit. We don’t want our clients to pay any more interest than they need to for any longer than they must.

How Can Low Doc Home Loans Help Business Growth?
A Low Doc loan could mean the difference between buying a property today, or waiting months (or years) to qualify for lending under full a verification process. Depending on your timing, the exposure to the property market (or lack thereof) could be a lucrative or costly result.
Why Use A Broker When Securing Low Doc Loans Products?
Many Low Doc lenders distribute their products solely through the Broker Channel. This means that their products are not available through direct application. Profiling guidelines through these lenders are also either unavailable to the public or difficult to find. Your mortgage broker will compare the risk profiles and associated rates/fees, according to your individual situation and position, to make sure you get the best deal.

I started the journey to buy my first home about 8 months ago with Shayna & Sam and I can honestly say that I’ve never experienced better service and expertise in the financial sector. Sam kept me up to date the entire time and every text or phone call was answered within the hour. Cannot recommend the team highly enough. (Special shout out to Sam Lawson she is a legend!)

Brett was recommended to us for our business loans and now 2 1/2 years later he has helped us buy our home. The team were always available for any questions (even the silly ones) and returned phone calls and emails promptly. They made buying a house so easy and everything ran smoothly and on time. Both Brett and Alicia are very knowledgeable and efficient in what they do. I would highly recommend Brett and Alicia for any of your loan needs.

Brett and Alicia came highly recommended from a work colleague. I had previously gone through a pre approval process with another broker (which will remain unnamed). The difference was night and day. Being a first home buyer I had no idea what I was doing. Both Brett and Alicia were so accomodating and answered all my silly questions and walked me through EVERYTHING step by step. We had my pre approval through in about a quarter of the time of the last brokers!! Once I found the home I wanted to buy it was literally the easiest thing in the world. They will be getting all my business.

We very recently sought advice from Loanright Financial Services regarding home loan refinancing options. Sam, Luke and the team have been incredible during this process! Their customer service is second to none, consistently outstanding and exceeded my expectations every time. Sam is always inviting and made us feel comfortable but is also highly skilled, professional, efficient and kept us updated and informed in all steps of the process. I highly recommend Sam and the team at Loanright and will continue to tell everyone we know. Thank you all for taking such good care of our family!
Low Doc Loan FAQs
How long do I need to be trading before I can apply for a low doc loan?
The answer to this typically ranges between 1-2 years, however with continuation in the same industry some lenders will consider less.
Can I get a low doc loan for a commercial property?
Yes, and some major banks will do this with very competitive rates. The assessment requirements will depend on your deposit or equity, as well as any rent the commercial property generates.
What is a Low Doc Loan?
A Low Doc Loan is a loan product that is assessed using minimal verification of income and financial records.
How do interest rates on Low Doc Home Loans compare to Standard Home Loans
Since less verification is required to assess a Low Doc Loan, the risk is much higher for the lender. In turn, the lender may charge a higher interest rate to mitigate this risk. Your mortgage broker will look for lenders and products where your position meets the lowest risk grades and interest rates.
Are there any exit costs on Low Doc Loans
In some cases yes. But this will be different between lenders. Some may charge a higher interest rate, with little to no early termination fees, while others may offer a competitive interest rate, but charge an exit fee if you are to terminate your loan within the first two or so years.
How much deposit do I need for a Low Doc Loan
LVR or (Loan to value ratio) limits will vary between lenders, and some may even charge a risk fee if your LVR is higher than 70%. Ideally you’ll want a 20% deposit, however, there are some that will require less. Ultimately, the lower the LVR and the bigger the deposit, the cheaper your loan is likely to be.
