Self-Employed & Alt Doc Finance

Different records. The same careful assessment.

Recent tax returns and financial statements remain the most widely accepted way to show self-employed income. Where they are not current, some lenders may consider BAS, business bank statements or an accountant letter or declaration — each under its own criteria.

Not every lender accepts every documentation method, and alternative-documentation and non-bank loans can involve different pricing, fees, deposit and loan terms. Income verification and a full credit assessment still apply.

The same conversation covers buying a home, refinancing, investment lending and business funding for sole traders, company directors, trusts and partnerships.

Loveday Financial arranges specialist, non-bank and private funding through its lending partners. These products differ from conventional bank lending in pricing, security, fees, terms and risks, and each enquiry is reviewed individually.
