Program Overview

Our Healthcare Professional Loan Program offers three distinct tiers designed to meet the diverse needs of medical providers — from residents just starting out to established physicians purchasing luxury homes.

Program 1: HP Loan

Up to $2M | 100% LTV | Primary Residence

Program 2: HP Loan

Up to $3M | 97% LTV | Primary & Second Homes

Program 3: Doctor Loan

Up to $2M | 90–100% LTV | Primary Residence

All programs: No mortgage insurance | Up to 50% DTI | 700+ FICO (680+ for Program 3)

Zero Down Payment — 100% LTV

Maximum Loan-to-Value on Core HP Loan

The Core HP Loan allows qualified healthcare professionals to purchase a home with zero down payment — a feature virtually unmatched in conventional lending.

  • No down payment required on loans up to $2M
  • Eliminates the #1 barrier to homeownership for early-career providers
  • Preserves capital for student loan repayment, practice investment, or savings
  • Available on primary residences with 700+ FICO

For a $750,000 home, a conventional 20% down payment would require $150,000 upfront. With our Core HP Loan — $0 down.

Medical Residents, Fellows & Interns

Early-career physicians in training are among the most underserved borrowers in conventional lending — and among the most important to reach.

Who Qualifies

Residents, fellows, and interns holding one of the eligible degrees (e.g., MD Resident, DO Fellow, PharmD Intern)

Why It Matters

Residents often earn $60,000–$80,000/year while carrying $200,000+ in student debt — conventional lenders routinely decline them

Program Access

The Doctor Loan (Program 3) with its 680+ FICO threshold is particularly well-suited for residents and early-career physicians

Reaching residents and fellows early builds long-term client relationships with some of the highest-earning professionals in the country.

Exceptional Earning Potential

Physicians, dentists, and specialists consistently rank among the top earners in the U.S. — with income that grows significantly post-residency

Strong Employment Stability

Healthcare is recession-resistant. Medical professionals maintain high employment rates even during economic downturns

Underserved by Conventional Lenders

Most conventional products fail this demographic — making our program a powerful differentiator.
