Why use Doctors Mortgages Online?
If you are a Doctor or medical professional, using a specialist broker with medical professional experience can make a difference to the success of your mortgage application and take away all of the hassle involved with finding and securing a mortgage.

How Do High Street Banks View Medical Professionals?
Junior Doctors
As a junior doctor, you won't have a permanent employment contract when going through your training rotations. During this time, your training might require you to change hospitals, location, take on additional hours, and more, meaning you have more than one income stream. This can be confusing for traditional banks when determining your affordability, as they'll see you as a fixed-term contractor and only consider your basic salary. All of this can make it harder to secure a mortgage on your own without the help of a specialist broker.
GPs
For most salaried GPs, securing a mortgage should be easy enough as banks treat them the same as any other salaried employee. Where things get complicated is for new GP partners who are looking to buy a property. GP partners are viewed as self-employed by high street banks, meaning they'll usually need to prove two years' worth of income for a successful mortgage application. This can be a big stumbling block for those hoping to get a mortgage with a high street lender. When you turn to an expert medical mortgage broker like us, we can help you secure a mortgage based on what the surgery earns and your projected earnings.
Locums
Locum doctors often work irregular shift patterns, meaning their income can vary monthly. It doesn't matter to high street banks that you are a high earner. They just view you as a self-employed applicant without a regular, steady income. This can complicate your mortgage application. Traditional lenders will often want to see many years' worth of payslips before approving you for a mortgage. At Doctors Mortgages Online, we understand that you might not always have these due to the nature of this kind of work. The lenders we work with are understanding of your unique circumstances as a locum doctor, meaning a lack of payslips won't stand in your way.
Consultants
It might come as a surprise to learn that medical consultants can struggle to secure a mortgage. High street banks like mortgage applications to be kept simple and straightforward. As a consultant, you might have as many as five income streams, which include an NHS salary, private income, hospital board membership salary, merit awards, and payments for lecturing. This can be too complicated for traditional lenders to figure out, especially if you are new to your post and don't have proof of many years of income. That's why you should turn to a professional healthcare broker who only works with lenders who understand your pay structure.
