Who this guide is for

Australian plumbers on ABN — sole traders, small business owners, subcontractors — wanting home loans that recognise plumbing trade income.

  • Sole trader plumbers with residential client base
  • Subcontracted plumbers working construction sites
  • Small plumbing companies with 1–5 employees
  • South Asian plumbers needing cultural support

The real challenge

Plumber ABN income faces the same challenges as other trades — major banks default to conservative assessment of self-employed trade income. Tax returns often understate actual cash flow due to legitimate vehicle and equipment expenses.

Specialist lenders treat plumber ABN income properly with 2+ years of BAS and tax returns.

How Mortgagefy helps

Mortgagefy works with lenders comfortable with plumbing trade income. We apply equipment add-backs where possible, document trading consistency, and identify lenders flexible with sole trader trade structures.

Frequently asked questions

We use offer letters and vesting schedules to value RSUs conservatively. We present current vesting value + projected future vesting as a 3-5 year income average. This gives lenders confidence in your income stability while accounting for market volatility.
Both. We work with W2 employees, 1099 contractors, and consultants. For contractors, we use 2 years of tax returns plus business financials. We have lenders who specialise in contractor income—they understand the variability.
Unvested options have zero value for refinancing. We count only vested equity. If you have a 4-year vest, we use 25% of the grant value (what's vested) plus a conservative projection of future vesting.
If you've been in your new role 6+ months, most lenders will refinance. We'll use your offer letter plus 6 months of pay stubs. If less than 6 months, it's harder but possible with specialist lenders.
Yes, if you have 2+ years of bonus history. We average the past 2 years and present it conservatively. Some bonuses get counted at 50% to be conservative with variable compensation.
ESPP is counted as deferred compensation. If your company matches or you have a discount, we value it as part of total compensation package.
