A Lack of Savings Won’t Stop You from a Physician Mortgage

Let’s face it, a medical degree is expensive. In fact, According to the Department of Education, the cost of medical school combined with an undergraduate degree can run between $235,000 and $500,000. Its no surprise that many young doctors enter practice with little more to show for their years of hard work than their medical license and some boxes of macaroni & cheese! For most professionals, a mortgage is unattainable without a 20% down payment, plain and simple. But doctors are different—earning potential and a reputation for quick repayment work in your favor. Because savings are lean (at best), the enticement of a mortgage without a down payment may be especially attractive.

Even if you aren’t specifically looking to obtain a loan with no down payment, shopping around for lenders who specialize in physician mortgages will allow you to choose a bank and terms which suit your specific financial needs. By finding a lender who can help you through the ins and outs of a physician mortgage, you can become fully informed in the various options your career opens up, and reap the rewards you have earned through years of hard work in medical school.

We introduce a handful of lenders who offer preferential terms to doctors, rewarding them for their outstanding financial reputation.
