Knowing what paperwork to gather makes a coach finance application far smoother. Requirements vary by lender and by whether you apply full-doc or low-doc. Simon Kendrick can tell you exactly what your chosen lender needs before you apply.
What documents do you need to start?
Most applications begin with your ABN details, identification and information about the coach you intend to buy, such as an invoice or quote. GST registration details are commonly requested too. For eligible applicants, this basic set is sometimes enough under a low-doc structure.
What do full-documentation applications need?
Where a fuller assessment applies, lenders may ask for recent bank statements, financial statements or tax returns, and details of existing commitments. Property ownership information can also help. The exact list depends on the lender and the loan amount, all subject to their criteria.
Why get your documents ready early?
Having your documents ready shortens the process and reduces back-and-forth. Simon provides a tailored checklist so you gather only what is needed. Any tax paperwork questions should go to your accountant or registered tax adviser.
