Low Doc Loans

Flexible Options for Self-Employed Borrowers with Nutmeg

Low Doc & Alt Doc Home Loans

Not everyone follows the traditional 9-to-5 work routine, and for many, regular payslips aren’t the norm. If you’re a self-employed individual, contractor, or business owner, getting approved for a home loan can feel challenging, especially if your income doesn’t come in the form of a predictable paycheck. At Nutmeg Finance, we understand the complexities of non-traditional income, and that’s why we offer Low Doc and Alt Doc home loan options designed specifically for borrowers like you.

With our alternative documentation loans, you can still pursue your property dreams without the stress of providing standard paperwork. If you’re a self-employed individual or someone whose income is irregular, Nutmeg Finance makes the loan application process simpler and more accessible.

What we offer

What Are Low Doc & Alt Doc Home Loans?

Low Doc (Low Documentation) and Alt Doc (Alternative Documentation) loans are designed for borrowers who may not have access to the traditional forms of documentation required for a standard home loan. These options are ideal for those who are:

  • Self-Employed: If you’re a freelancer, contractor, or small business owner, your income may not be consistent or easy to document with traditional pay slips.
  • Business Owners: If you own a business, your income may fluctuate, and you may not have full tax returns or formal payslips to show lenders.
  • Non-Standard Workers: Whether you’re in the gig economy, working on commission, or have other non-traditional forms of income, we have solutions that work for you.
Why Choose us

Why Choose Nutmeg Finance for Low Doc & Alt Doc Loans?

  • Simplified Documentation: Unlike traditional home loans that require extensive paperwork such as tax returns or pay slips, our Low Doc and Alt Doc loans allow you to submit alternative documentation to prove your income and financial stability.
  • Flexible Income Verification: We accept various forms of income verification, such as bank statements, business activity statements (BAS), and profit & loss statements. This flexibility makes it easier for self-employed individuals to qualify for a home loan.
  • Quick & Efficient Process: Our Low Doc and Alt Doc loans offer a quicker approval process compared to traditional home loans. This allows you to focus on growing your business while we handle the paperwork.
  • Competitive Interest Rates: While Low Doc and Alt Doc loans offer flexibility, Nutmeg Finance ensures that you still get access to competitive interest rates, making your loan affordable and manageable.
  • Tailored Support: We know that every self-employed borrower’s financial situation is unique. Our experienced mortgage brokers will guide you through the process, helping you choose the best loan option based on your circumstances.

Who Can Benefit from Low Doc & Alt Doc Loans?

  • Self-Employed Individuals: If you’ve recently started a business or been self-employed for a while and have limited documentation like pay slips or tax returns, these loans can help you qualify for a home loan.
  • Freelancers and Contractors: For those with inconsistent or project-based incomes, we understand that traditional lenders may not recognize your full earning potential. Nutmeg Finance offers loans that consider your actual income, not just traditional salary benchmarks.
  • Small Business Owners: Business owners often have difficulty proving their income because of fluctuating earnings. Nutmeg Finance uses alternative forms of verification to help you secure the financing you need.
  • Non-Traditional Income Earners: Whether you’re working in the gig economy, earning commission, or working irregular hours, Nutmeg Finance has home loan options that take into account your unique income structure.

What You Need for a Low Doc or Alt Doc Home Loan with Nutmeg Finance

To make it easier for you, Nutmeg Finance accepts alternative forms of documentation. Here’s what you typically need to apply for a Low Doc or Alt Doc loan:

  • Income Verification: This could include recent bank statements, business activity statements (BAS), or profit & loss statements. We understand that traditional payslips may not apply to your situation.
  • ABN (Australian Business Number): If you’re self-employed, a current ABN and proof of business activity will help us verify your income.
  • Personal Identification: Like any loan, we’ll need proof of identity such as a driver’s license or passport.
  • Property Details: Basic property details such as valuation, contract, or details of the property you wish to purchase.

In many cases, you don’t need to provide full tax returns or a detailed paper trail. Instead, Nutmeg Finance will assess your ability to repay the loan based on practical, real-world documentation that reflects your current financial situation.
