Low Doc Loans for NDIS Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicle Buyers

โ™ฟ Low Doc Loans for NDIS Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicle Buyers

If youโ€™re delivering NDIS transport services, having a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV) is often essential โ€” but securing finance can be a nightmare if your financials arenโ€™t fully up to date.

Low doc loans are designed for ABN holders who are working now but donโ€™t have time to wait for BAS or tax returns.


๐Ÿ’ก What Is a Low Doc Loan for WAV Purchases?

Low doc finance helps business owners access vehicle loans without needing full documentation. Instead of traditional financials, lenders usually accept:

  • โœ… ABN (active 6+ months preferred)

  • โœ… 3โ€“6 months of bank statements

  • โœ… Vehicle or upfitting quote

  • โœ… Confirmation itโ€™s for business use

Perfect for:

  • ๐Ÿš NDIS providers expanding into accessible transport

  • ๐Ÿงพ Sole traders needing a WAV to meet contract obligations

  • ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿฆผ Operators upgrading from standard vehicles to compliant setups

  • ๐Ÿ›ป Contractors working under NDIS agencies
