SPECIAL RATES AND LENDING POLICIES FOR DOCTORS AND MEDICAL CAREERS

Home Loans for Doctors & Medical Practitioners

Lenders treat medical professionals differently because the data supports it: low default rates, strong long-term income growth, and stable employment. The result is a set of specialist lending policies - most notably, cheaper rates & the ability to borrow up to 95–100% of the property value with no Lenders Mortgage Insurance.

WHO QUALIFIES

Which medical professions are eligible?

Eligibility varies by lender, but most policies extend across these groups:

Specialists
Full LMI waiver, often to 95% or 100% LVR. Includes Cardiologists, Surgeons, Anaesthetists, radiologists, oncologists, Cosmetic surgeons, Dental surgeons, Dermatologists, Dentists, General Practictioners (GPs), Intern Doctors, Ophthalmologists, Pharmacists and more.

Veterinarians
LMI waiver to 90% LVR with most lenders.

Optometrists, pharmacists, physiotherapists, allied health
Eligibility varies by lender. Some extend full waivers to 90% LVR; others apply tighter conditions.

Residents, registrars, and trainees in advanced specialty programs are also recognised by many lenders - some from early in your career. We match your profession to the lenders most likely to offer the strongest terms.

LMI WAIVERS IN NUMBERS

How much do you save?

Worked examples on a $1.5 million Sydney purchase.

Standard buyer

10% deposit

$1.35M loan.
LMI approximately $32,000 - $37,000.

Doctor

10% deposit

$1.35M loan.
LMI waived. Saving $32,000 - $37,000.

Specialist

100% LVR

$1.5M loan, no deposit.
Standard LMI would exceed $60,000 - waived.

These savings go directly to you: they're not offset by higher interest rates. The medical professional rate is typically in line with standard owner-occupier pricing.

BORROWING CAPACITY

How lenders assess medical income.

Borrowing capacity for medical professionals follows the same core factors: income, expenses, debts, but the way lenders apply them is more generous.

Income assessed favourably

Some lenders take a more generous view of overtime, on-call, and bonuses. Locum income is recognised by select lenders.

Higher LVR without LMI

You can often borrow more with a smaller deposit, without LMI applying. That changes the maths on what you can afford.

Financials assessed leniently

Many lenders for doctors, will rely on the most recent years financials and not even take a look at what has happened historically. This is important if the most recent years performance is much stronger than previous.

As a guide, a specialist earning $400,000 with a 10% deposit can typically borrow for a property in the $1.6-1.9 million range, depending on their broader financial position - with no LMI. Outside of medical lending policies, that same scenario could involve $40,000+ in LMI, making a material difference to upfront costs.

LMI WAIVERS

What is the criteria to meet for a special rate and to have your LMI waived?

Current AHPRA registration

Currently employed as a qualified medical professional or as a doctor

No need to be employed in that field for 6 months, 1 year or 2. There are no minimum ABN requirements either for doctors or medical professionals, to receive LMI waivers of special rates
