Medical professionals deserve to know that their mortgage broker understands and respects their unique needs and requirements. That is why Get a Better Rate prioritises health professionals through specialised home loan packages designed to support them through every step of the banking process.
Doctors tend to choose Get a Better Rate because we take the time to cultivate specialised knowledge about the health industry and the support professionals in that field need.

If you are interested in medical profession home loans, choose one of the top mortgage brokers in Sydney CBD. Get a Better Rate provides various mortgage services tailored to support medical professionals. Each service is intended to address the unique financial situation of doctors, who tend to be 'low-risk' borrowers.
Generally, medical professionals have a stable and steady cash flow and more lucrative income potential than other professions. These financial factors, alongside the societal respect and trust the medical industry provides its workers, make them respectable clients for lenders.
Doctor home loans offer the exclusive benefit of waived LMI for medical professionals who apply for the specialised product. This means doctors can borrow up to 100% of their home loan value without paying the lender's mortgage insurance.
When you do not have to pay the lender's mortgage insurance, you can save a lot on your home loan fees throughout the loan's lifetime.
Home loans for doctors tend to be confident in the financial security and high incomes of medical professionals. This means that many lenders offer to cover annual loan fees for home loans above a certain amount. This can save you a significant amount of money throughout your home loan.
Interest rates tend to be one of the main points of consideration when choosing the best home loan for your needs.
Doctor home loans are often so appealing to medical professionals as they offer special discounts on interest rates. These rates tend to be lower than a lender's advertised rate, framing it as an exclusive offer only a medical professional can take advantage of.
Whether you are a first home buyer looking for a mortgage, an experienced buyer interested in an investment property, or a medical professional looking to refinance or renovate your existing home, medical professionals can receive exclusive cash-back offers from their broker. Choose to get cash back on top of your desired home loan packages to save more time and money.
Any qualified medical professional will be sure to receive specialised guidance through available doctor home loans by an experienced mortgage broker. This includes all of the hard work of finding home loans for doctors and comparing products being taken on by the broker.
Your broker will do their best to secure the highest borrowing capacity possible, even as they search for competitive interest rates and loan terms. When you trust a broker to take the initiative, the usual stress of finding a home loan that suits your personal and financial situation is removed.
We acknowledge that doctors and other medical professionals are in a unique position regarding their finances and work capacity. That is why Get a Better Rate has tailored its mortgage services to support such unique needs through medical loan packages.
Unlike the hands-off approach most lenders tend to take to their clients, the mortgage brokers at Get a Better Rate always use a personalised approach to support their clients throughout their home loan journey.
This is more evident than our tailored process for medical professionals seeking a home loan.

The main benefits of doctor home loans are the discounted interest rates, no need to pay LMI, high borrowing capacity, and lack of annual fees. Your mortgage broker or lender may be able to offer additional and unique benefits when you use their services.
Mortgage brokers can help doctors directly access home loans specifically tailored to medical professionals. There is no need to search for themselves when a broker can help them save time and money while also finding the most competitive loan packages.
Additionally, brokers can help doctors borrow up to 100% of the property without paying LMI.
Doctors can obtain cheaper home loans by receiving interest rate discounts and waived LMI. Some lenders may waive annual fees, lowering the cost of taking out a loan even further.
Since doctors are considered 'low-risk' borrowers, many lenders offer exclusive deals to waive LMI costs. This enables doctors to borrow as high as 95-100% of the property value, meaning that some doctors can enjoy cheaper home loans due to their exemption from LMI.
Typically, borrowers are expected to pay a deposit of around 20% of the property's value, lest they pay LMI. However, doctors can usually deposit only 5-10% without paying the LMI premium. Some lenders may even allow no deposit since doctors are considered so low-risk!
