Financing an RV When You’re Self-Employed
Being self-employed means freedom—but it can also make loan approvals more complicated. At 1000 Islands RV, we work with lenders who understand non-traditional income and are open to flexible RV financing.
Whether you’re a:
-
🧰 General contractor
-
💻 Freelancer or consultant
-
🚐 Content creator
-
🛠️ Tradesperson or technician
-
📦 Gig worker or delivery driver
…we’ll help you get into an RV that fits your lifestyle and budget.
What You’ll Need to Qualify
Lenders don’t require a traditional job or T4 to approve your RV loan. Instead, you’ll typically need:
-
✔️ 2 years of business income (via tax returns or NOAs)
-
✔️ Proof of consistent revenue
-
✔️ Valid business registration (if applicable)
-
✔️ Government-issued ID
-
✔️ A reasonable down payment (can help with approval)
💡 Don’t have all that? Let us help you navigate alternative paths.
