Who this guide is for
Sydney Bangladeshi business owners (grocery, restaurant, retail, services) with only 12-18 months of ABN history wanting to buy a home.
- Bangladeshi grocery, restaurant or retail owners 12-18 months trading
- Newer self-employed Bangladeshi service providers
- Recently-established sole traders in Lakemba/Wiley Park/Punchbowl
- Buyers with prior PAYG career now self-employed
The local picture
Most major banks require 2 years ABN history before considering self-employed applications. For Bangladeshi business owners 12-18 months in, this seems to rule out home ownership. But specialist lenders accept shorter history with the right structure.
How Mortgagefy helps locally
