    If you are self employed but have not yet done your financials, you can get a lo doc loan. The interest rates are the same as standard loans now but you will need at least 20% deposit. You will also need to pay mortgage insurance in some cases to get the really cheap rates. So many different situations can arise so you should discuss your own personal details with a good mortgage adviser.

    To answer your question directly, lenders usually require 2 years self employed before approving a low doc loan but some will allow 1 day self employed. Basically, NO, you do not need to work for a boss to borrow money.
