- Bank and financial statements from your business.
If you can’t provide the documents listed above (for example, because your tax returns have not been finalised yet) lenders might accept the following instead:

Frequently asked questions
There are a range of choices for self-employed borrowers – you could go with a variable or fixed rate, a simple or complete package, principal and interest or interest only repayments. The right product depends on your needs and what your objective is – perhaps you want a loan that offers credit cards and multiple offset accounts, or maybe you’d prefer something simpler. Whether you want to build or buy will also feed into this decision.

What’s the comparison rate?
It’s a tool that can help you identify the truer cost of a loan. It’s calculated using a standard formula that includes the interest rate, as well as certain fees and charges relating to a loan (not all fees and charges are included).
Comparison rate warning:
Comparison rate is calculated on the statutory assumption of $150,000 loan over 25 years but the minimum required loan amount is $200,000 for the Complete Home Loan Package. Different rates apply for different loan amounts and may depend on the duration of a fixed rate period or the ratio of the loan amount to the property value. WARNING: This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan.
Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) is the portion of money you are borrowing in relation to the value of the property.
