Only been self-employed for one year and wondering if you can apply for a home loan?

The answer depends on more than just how long you have been in business.

Lenders may consider factors such as:

✓ Your income history
✓ Trading experience
✓ Financial records
✓ Current contracts
✓ Overall financial position

Some self-employed borrowers may have options without waiting for two full years, while others may need a longer history depending on lender requirements.

Understanding your position before applying can help you choose the right pathway.

A business can have strong sales, but that does not automatically mean the same amount is available as personal income.

For self-employed borrowers, lenders may look at the bigger picture, including business expenses, profit, ownership structure and existing commitments.

Understanding your financials can help you prepare for the right home loan pathway.

Self-employed and applying for a home loan?

You may not always need two years of tax returns.

Some lenders may consider eligible borrowers using one completed financial year, while others may ask for more information.

The documents you need will depend on the lender and your circumstances.

If you are self-employed, a lender may need more than just your tax return.

Your financial statements, BAS and business bank statements can each help show a different part of your financial position.

The documents required will depend on the lender, your business structure and how your income is assessed.

Tax deductions can reduce taxable profit, but lenders do not always assess every expense in the same way.

Some expenses may be considered as add-backs, depending on the lender and the supporting evidence.

The key is making sure your tax records are accurate and understanding how your income may be assessed before applying.

Self-employed home loans are not always assessed the same way.

Depending on your circumstances, you may have different pathways available, including:

• Two-year financial assessment
• One-year assessment with some lenders
• Alternative documentation using records such as BAS or business bank statements

The right option depends on your trading history, income, business structure, liabilities and available documents.

A high business turnover does not automatically mean a high borrowing income.

Lenders may also consider your business expenses, taxable profit, liabilities, income history and any acceptable add-backs.

For self-employed borrowers, understanding how a lender is likely to assess your income can make a significant difference before you apply.
