For Florida medical professionals

Up to 100% home financing,built for medical careers.

These programs are underwritten for medical careers. Qualifying medical professionals may access up to 100% financing on loans to $1 million, with low-down-payment options reaching $2 million — both subject to lender approval.

Depending on the lender, student loans may also be treated differently from a standard mortgage, PMI may be waived, and a signed employment contract may count before you have drawn a single pay cheque.

U.S. Prime Realty is a real estate brokerage, not a mortgage company. Financing comes from independent lender partners.

The headline benefit

Two tiers, and they are not the same

The amount you borrow decides which one applies. Programs that advertise no down payment cap lower than programs that ask for a small one.

Up to $1,000,000 100% financing may be available No down payment, for qualifying medical professionals. Subject to lender approval.
Up to $2,000,000 Low-down-payment options Larger loans generally require a down payment. Subject to lender approval.

Figures reflect a medical professional program reviewed at the time of writing and are not an offer of credit. Availability, limits and terms vary by lender and by borrower profile. Do not assume a nurse practitioner or physician assistant receives the same maximum financing, down payment or student-debt treatment as an MD, DO or dentist.

How the underwriting differs

A medical career does not fit the standard template.

Standard underwriting weighs the debt you carry now against the income you earn now. For most borrowers those two numbers move together. For a doctor they do not.

A resident finishing training has an unusual shape on paper — large education debt, little saved for a deposit, and an income curve that is about to change steeply and then stay remarkably stable.

A standard mortgage sees the first half of that picture. Medical professional programs were written for the whole of it.

  Standard mortgage Medical professional program
Down payment Typically 5–20% Up to 100% financing on loans to $1M
PMI Usually required under 20% Options with no PMI
Student loans Full payment counted May be treated flexibly
Employment Pay stubs and history Signed contract may be accepted
Loan amount Standard limits Low-down-payment options to $2,000,000

General comparison only. Terms vary by lender and by borrower profile, and not every eligible profession receives the same treatment. Nothing here is an offer of credit or a guarantee of qualification.

Before you call

The questions we hear first

Programme details vary by lender and by individual circumstances. Everything below is general information, not a commitment to lend.

Do I need to have started work yet?+

Do I need to have started work yet?

Not always. Some programmes may accept a signed employment contract with a defined start date in place of pay stubs, which is why they suit residents and fellows approaching the end of training. Whether that applies to you is confirmed by the lender.

How are student loans treated?+

How are student loans treated?

This is usually the deciding factor. Standard underwriting counts the full monthly payment against you. Physician programmes may treat education debt more flexibly — how flexibly varies by lender and by your repayment plan.

Do I need a deposit?+

Do I need a deposit?

Possibly not. Some physician programs advertise 100% financing on loans up to $1 million, which means no down payment for a qualifying borrower. Larger loans, including options up to $2 million, generally do require a down payment.

Both tiers are subject to eligibility and lender guidelines. That is not a guarantee, and it is not available to everyone.

Is PMI always waived?+

Is PMI always waived?

No. Options with no PMI may be available, which is one of the main reasons these programmes exist. Whether it applies to your loan depends on the programme and your profile.

Which professions qualify?+

Which professions qualify?

Commonly physicians, dentists, interns, residents, fellows, optometrists, podiatrists, nurse practitioners, nurse anesthetists and physician assistants — while actively practising. The list and the treatment each receives varies by lender; not every eligible profession gets the same loan limit or terms.

Is this only for a primary residence?+

Is this only for a primary residence?

These programmes are generally written for a primary residence. Occupancy requirements are set by the lender and confirmed before you apply.

Does the first enquiry affect my credit?+
