Yoga Instructor Home Loan Australia: Real Lending for Yoga Teachers

Mortgagefy Broker Team · Published · Last reviewed

Studio-contracted yoga teacher, multiple class venues, online instruction — Mortgagefy knows lenders who handle yoga instructor ABN income properly.

Who this guide is for

Australian yoga instructors on ABN — studio contractors, online teachers, retreat teachers — wanting home loans that recognise yoga teacher income.

  • Studio-contracted yoga teachers across multiple Sydney studios
  • Online yoga teachers with subscription/class fees
  • Yoga teachers running their own retreat or workshop businesses
  • South Asian yoga teachers with cultural roots

The real challenge

Yoga instructor income is variable, often spread across multiple studios, with class-by-class payment. Major banks struggle with this structure.

Specialist lenders treat yoga instructor income as freelance ABN with 2+ years of BAS history.

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.
