Special Mortgage Solutions for Medical Professionals

Look after your financial health with a specialty home loan.

Managing your financial health is crucial, especially when pursuing a career in medicine. The unique demands of medical training and practice can sometimes make homeownership seem out of reach, but there’s a mortgage solution tailored specifically for professionals like you.

Introducing the Doctor Loan

Designed to accommodate the needs of various medical professionals, the Doctor Loan helps you finance a home while managing the financial pressures of your career and student loans.

Who is Eligible?

This loan is available to a range of medical professionals, including:

Medical Residents (Educational License)
Medical Doctors (MD)
Doctors of Dental Surgery (DDS)
Doctors of Dental Medicine (DMD)
Doctors of Optometry (OD)
Doctors of Ophthalmology (MD)
Doctors of Pharmacy (PharmD)
Doctors of Podiatric Medicine (DPM)
Doctors of Osteopathy (DO)
Doctors of Veterinary Medicine (DVM)
Registered Nurses
Nurse Anesthetists
Nurse Practitioners
Clinical Nurse Specialists

For Medical Doctors, eligibility extends to those who are active medical residents (typically completing residency within 3-5 years or up to 7 years for specialty fields) or those within the first 10 years of their profession post-residency completion.

Key Features of the Doctor Loan:

– High Loan Amounts: Up to $1.5 million

– Low Down Payment: Designed to reduce the upfront cost

– Adjustable-Rate Options: 5/6, 7/6, and 10/6 adjustable-rate options available

– Flexible Contributions: Interested party contributions are allowed

Additional Advantages:

– Reduced Mortgage Insurance Requirements: Many Doctor Loan programs do not require private mortgage insurance (PMI), even with a low down payment, which can significantly reduce monthly payments.

– Higher Loan-to-Value Ratios: These loans often offer higher loan-to-value (LTV) ratios, allowing for a larger loan amount relative to the property’s value.

– Flexible Credit Requirements: Doctor Loans may have more lenient credit score requirements, understanding that early-career medical professionals might have less-established credit histories.

– Deferred Student Loan Payments: Lenders may consider deferred student loans more favorably, meaning that while you may have student debt, it won’t necessarily impact your ability to qualify for a mortgage as much as it might with traditional loans.

– No Prepayment Penalties: Many Doctor Loans do not have prepayment penalties, allowing you to pay off your mortgage early without incurring additional costs.

– Specialized Underwriting: Lenders often have specialized underwriting processes for these loans, taking into account the unique financial situations of medical professionals, such as fluctuating incomes and significant student loans.

– Support for High-Debt Borrowers: These programs are designed to support high-debt borrowers who have invested heavily in their education but may have limited savings due to their student loans.

– Potential for Lower Interest Rates: Some Doctor Loan programs offer competitive interest rates specifically for medical professionals.

This mortgage is crafted to support your journey as you balance your career and homeownership. Reach out to learn more about how a Doctor Loan could work for you.

From Garage to ADU: How a 203(k) Loan Helped One Family Maximize Their Space

By Garrick Werdmuller • June 18, 2025

🛠️ From Garage to ADU: How a 203(k) Loan Helped One Family Maximize Their Space 🛠️ Buy It and Fix It With One Loan: The FHA 203(k) Limited A few years ago, I helped a couple purchase their home with just 5% down. It was a great fit for them at the time — solid neighborhood, the space they needed, and a bonus: a detached garage with potential. Fast forward to today — their teenage son was getting older and needed his own space. Naturally, they started exploring how to turn that detached garage into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) so he could move in and have a bit more independence. They gave me a call, hoping to tap into their home’s equity with a line of credit. But after running the numbers, it became clear that a traditional HELOC wouldn’t provide enough funds to cover the full conversion. That’s when I brought up a lesser-known option: the FHA 203(k) Limited loan . The FHA 203(k) Limited program snapshot outlines a renovation loan product allowing borrowers to finance both the purchase and rehabilitation of a property with a single mortgage , specifically for non-structural repairs or improvements. Here's a summarized overview for reference or communication: 🏡 What Is It? The FHA 203(k) Limited is designed for: Homebuyers purchasing a fixer-upper Homeowners refinancing and remodeling Primary residences only You can finance both the home and non-structural renovations—like kitchens, bathrooms, floors, HVAC systems, roofs, appliances, and more—with a single mortgage . 💡 Why Use a 203(k) Limited? ✅ Finance up to $75,000 in repairs and upgrades ✅ Only 3.5% down payment ✅ One loan, one closing ✅ No 203(k) Consultant required ✅ Ideal for non-structural repairs and cosmetic improvements ✅ Perfect for first-time buyers and FHA borrowers 🛑 What You Can’t Do With It This is for light remodeling only. You can’t use this loan for: Structural changes or additions Foundation work Landscaping (except for erosion prevention) Pools, hot tubs, or other luxury features (Bummer ! I know! 😒) 🧾 Borrower Submission Checklist Here’s what we’ll need to get started on your FHA 203(k) Limited loan: ✅ Basic Docs Loan Application (apply online or schedule an appointment) Government-issued ID Most recent 30 days of paystubs Last 2 years of W-2s or tax returns (for self-employed borrowers) Most recent 2 months of bank statements ✅ Property & Repair Info Signed Purchase Contract (if purchasing) Contractor’s Written Proposal with: Itemized list of repairs Cost breakdown (labor + materials) Statement that work is non-structural W-9 form from contractor Contractor license & insurance (if required by local jurisdiction) ✅ Appraisal & Renovation Docs Appraisal supporting As-Is and After-Improved Value Permit list (if applicable) Final Work Plan (signed off before close) 💬 Final Thoughts The FHA 203(k) Limited can turn a fixer into your dream home—or give your current space the refresh it deserves. With just one loan , you get flexibility , affordability , and peace of mind . Have a property in mind?

Guía definitiva de préstamos ITIN – Tu paso hacia la compra de casa

By Smith Chung • June 18, 2025

¿Qué es un préstamo ITIN? Un préstamo ITIN es una hipoteca diseñada para personas que declaran impuestos usando un Número de Identificación de Contribuyente Individual (ITIN) en lugar de un número de Seguro Social (SSN). El ITIN lo otorga el IRS a quienes no son elegibles para un SSN pero aún así deben declarar impuestos en EE. UU. 💬 En resumen: ¿No tienes SSN? ¡No hay problema! Si has sido financieramente responsable y cuentas con documentación básica, ¡podrías calificar! 💪 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 ¿Quién se beneficia de un préstamo ITIN? Los préstamos ITIN están diseñados para quienes persiguen el sueño americano — incluso sin documentación tradicional. Podrías beneficiarte si: 🌎 Eres inmigrante viviendo en EE. UU. sin green card ni SSN 🧾 Declaras impuestos usando un ITIN 💼 Tienes ingresos estables (W-2, por cuenta propia o incluso en efectivo con comprobantes) 💳 Pagas renta y servicios a tiempo y puedes demostrarlo 💥 Hemos ayudado a familias que pensaban que comprar casa era imposible — ¡y cerraron en solo 30–45 días! 🛠️ ¿Cómo funcionan los préstamos ITIN? Los préstamos ITIN generalmente son financiados por prestamistas no tradicionales (non-QM) o bancos especializados que operan fuera de los lineamientos de Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac. Aquí te explicamos cómo funcionan: 💰 Tipos de préstamo: Tasa fija o ajustable Compra, refinanciamiento o retiro de efectivo Propiedad principal, segunda vivienda y algunas propiedades de inversión 💵 Pago inicial: Generalmente del 10 % al 20 % A menudo se permiten fondos de regalo 📊 Crédito: En algunos casos no se requiere puntaje FICO Se puede usar historial de renta, servicios públicos o incluso crédito internacional 📉 Tasas y plazos: Ligeramente más altas que las convencionales Disponibles con tasa fija a 30 años o ARM de 5/7/10 años 📄 Documentación que necesitarás Para obtener una precalificación, debes demostrar estabilidad, ingresos y solvencia. La mayoría de los prestamistas solicitarán: 🆔 ITIN válido y vigente 📑 2 años de declaraciones de impuestos 💼 Comprobante de ingresos (W-2s, 1099s, o P&L si trabajas por cuenta propia) 🏦 2–3 meses de estados de cuenta bancarios 🌐 Identificación válida (pasaporte, matrícula consular, etc.) 🏘️ Historial de renta (comprobante bancario o carta del arrendador) 💡 Consejo extra: ¡Algunos prestamistas incluso aceptan ingresos o activos del extranjero! 🚫 Conceptos erróneos comunes sobre los préstamos ITIN ❌ Mito 1 : Los préstamos ITIN son ilegales. ✅ Falso. Son 100 % legales y cumplen con las regulaciones federales. ❌ Mito 2 : No calificas si eres trabajador independiente o te pagan en efectivo. ✅ No es cierto. Con declaraciones de impuestos o registros bancarios, definitivamente puedes calificar. ❌ Mito 3 : Te van a estafar o cobrar de más. ✅ ¡No con nosotros! Buscamos la mejor opción para tu préstamo y te explicamos todo con claridad. 🌱 ¿Por qué los préstamos ITIN son importantes para nuestras comunidades? 🏘️ Ser dueño de una casa crea riqueza generacional, estabiliza vecindarios y eleva a las familias.
