Obtaining approval for minimal documentation boat loans is essentially obtaining finance without presenting all the financial docs required in the application form. Docs or doc, are simply short for documents or documentation. The difference between ‘low’ and the reference to ‘no doc’ is the quantity of the paperwork available.
Specifically in the commercial lending industry, docs refers to any or all of the financial paperwork, spreadsheets and records on the business. These cover the tax return, annual accounts, BAS returns, asset and liability details, turnover figures, bank statements, and cash flow details.
An operator that has been trading for less than a full year typically does not have access to all these records. Where a business is in the setting-up stage, they may not have any docs. These operators may be eligible to apply for no doc boat finance.
Securing low doc boat finance at our competitive rates, can present a favourable alternative for many operators, compared with other options.

Where a small operator is not eligible for commercial financing due to lack of financials, they may need to take on a Personal Boat Loan. The rates are higher on personal credit compared with commercial, loan limits are not as high, balloons not always an option, and terms not always as flexible. In addition, tax benefits for the business operation may not be realised.
Another option may be to purchase the boat outright and bypass taking on finance completely. For some smaller boats such as dinghies and jet skis, this may be a possibility. But many individuals may not have immediate access to sufficient cash to pay for larger commercial vessels.
Seeking an investor as a partner may be considered. This may provide a pathway to immediate finance. But control of the business may need to be relinquished. For a low doc boat loan quote for comparison and budgeting purposes, or to proceed with an application, contact us.

The eligibility criteria for boat financing with low documentation varies across those lenders that provide the option. Essential requirements are an ABN and ID. A good credit profile is a high priority consideration. Lenders will also be looking for financial stability and documents to prove income and/or potential income from locked-in contracts. Approvals can be achieved with as little as half of year of figures and we encourage customers to prepare and provide, what financial credentials they can on their operation.
The financials and credit profile of the business owner can be requested and assessed as part of the approval process. Applicants may be requested to provide additional collateral against the financing. This is additional to the boat being financed.
Low doc boat finance applications are by their nature more complex than fully documented applications. But our brokers streamline and simplify the process for our customers. Ensuring the process is as easy as possible, and approvals are received promptly.
