Commercial Lease Doc Loan

What is a commercial lease doc loan?

  • A loan which involves using the lease income from a commercial or industrial property to service the debt on the property on a standalone basis - not your business financials. 
  • In a nutshell, if the rental income exceeds the repayments over a 12-month period, then it is possible to get the loan approved without the need to show business financials.
  • This type of loan is not very common; however, it can be found amongst a small number of lending institutions such as Better Choice Homes Loans.


Assessing Commercial Lease Doc Loans

- The lender will look at the debt and lease on its own. 

- This is good for businesses will unusual income streams that can't verify income.

- The applications strength comes from the tenants and the property - not the business.

- Lender assesses the debt on the property using the income of the lease only.  If the lease income can service the debt, the lender won't considering other debts.


Other considerations

- You can borrow up to 70% of the property value.

- No pay slips, tax returns, bank statements, BAS or financial statements are required.

- The security must be a commercial or industrial property.

- There must be at least 12 months left on the lease.

- Cannot be owner occupied.  A separate company must be renting the property.

- The lease income must cover the interest on your loan.


Example of a Lease Doc Loan:

- If a borrower had a tenant renting their commercial property, the leases income is counted as the cash flow to service the debt on the property.  Take the following example:


  • Commercial Property located at Revesby, Sydney
  • Property Value: $1,500,000
  • Debt/Loan: $965,000
  • Rental Income: $135,000 per annum
  • Lease Term: 5 by 5 year
  • Interest rate: 8.4%

The annual assessed interest for this loan is $965,000 x 8.4% = $81,060 per annum. 

The lease amount needs to be certain times more than the interest amount to be approved.
