Your business is solid. Your loan should be too.

Banks often read business income badly. Anthony knows which lenders assess add-backs, recent financials and retained profits properly, so your borrowing power reflects what you actually earn.

Who it's for

Built around where you're starting from.

Every business has a different shape. These are the situations we help with most, and each changes which lender makes sense.

01

Newer businesses

Trading for a year or two? Some lenders will work with a shorter history if the rest of the picture is strong.

02

Income that varies

Seasonal or lumpy income can be averaged or assessed on your best recent year, depending on the lender.

03

Tax returns that understate income

Depreciation and other add-backs can be counted back into your income by the right lender.

Self-employed questions

Many lenders ask for two years, but some accept one year, and low doc lenders may use BAS or business bank statements instead.

Expenses like depreciation, interest and one-off costs that some lenders add back to your taxable income, which can increase your borrowing power.

Rates and fees are often a little higher, but not always by much. We compare full doc and low doc options so you can see the difference.

Some lenders accept an ABN registered for 6–12 months, especially if you were in the same line of work before going out on your own.

It helps. We often speak with your accountant to confirm figures and make sure the application matches your financials.
