no-doc

Verification not required

No-doc describes a loan, typically a mortgage, that requires little or no documentation of the borrower's income or assets.

These loans rely on credit scores and collateral rather than pay stubs or tax returns: They got a no-doc loan because their income was hard to verify.

No-doc lending expanded dramatically before the 2008 financial crisis and became synonymous with reckless mortgage practices.
