Doctor Mortgages
At Regal, we specialise in finding products for professionals, including Doctors, so they can make the very most of their money with their mortgage.
As a doctor, getting a mortgage isn’t often an issue. Good salaries in a secure job is often a lender’s dream, so many doctors mortgages come with the best mortgage rates available.
However, the road to being a fully qualified, practicing doctor can be a long one in comparison to many other professions. The benefits of mortgages for doctors aren’t necessarily the same if you’re a junior or locum doctor, but there are still options available to you.
Locum Doctors
Locum doctors that typically fill in where there is a shortage may find it more difficult to get a mortgage. Similar to supply teachers, irregular working patterns can result in an irregular income, which makes it more complex for banks to make a lending decision. That said, if you can demonstrate that you’ve earned enough to be able to make consistent mortgage repayments, a lender may consider your application.
Junior Doctors
Junior doctors are often recently qualified doctors that are on a two-year training programme. As they are still within a foundation period and not yet granted full General Medical Council (GMC) membership, lenders may not consider their employment not permanent. In addition, if you are very newly qualified, lenders will want to see a history of income via payslips and bank statements, which you need to accumulate over time. Doctor mortgages are available to junior doctors, but it may be through a specialist lender.
Harry Jackson2024-03-05Matthew, Kirsti and Katie were all really helpful. Made sure that, as first time buyers, we understood everything that was going on and were always there to help if we needed them to. 100% would recommend you use them!
Michael Clarke2024-03-04Karen and Kirsti have been invaluable in helping us through the mortgage application process for our first home. We would thoroughly recommend their services - it has saved us a lot of stress! Swift and considerate guidance and support throughout the process.
Ioana Tomut2024-03-02We have worked with Karen and are extremely happy with how she handled our account. This was the second time we have attempted to buy our first house and we have worked with another mortgage advisor before. While both were excellent in terms of service and communication, Karen's suggestions for solicitors and survey were significantly cheaper to what we were quoted last time. I greatly recommend them.

Kiran2024-01-15Cannot recommend Regal Finance enough! Matthew and Kirsti were amazing and completely took the stress out of the process. They were always available to answer questions and guide us through everything. I found they had access to a wider range of products than other advisors I had used in the past. I will be recommending Regal Finance Group to everyone I know!
L Fowler2024-01-04Matthew and his team have gone above and beyond to help us with our mortgage. As first time buyers we decided to seek advice from a mortgage advisor. After having an offer accepted on a house we needed some support with the mortgage fairly quickly and Matthew managed to fit us in out of usual hours to suit us. We had a very detailed call with him and all our questions were answered. From this point onwards Kirsti managed our application and the whole process was fast and effortless as they managed everything. We made the best decision using Regal finance. If you choose to go with Regal you’ll be in good hands.

Temporary Contracts
Similar to locum doctors and most other temporary contract positions, mortgages can be more difficult to get. It could be that you’re contracted for a prolonged period, which makes approval more likely. Even still, provided you can evidence sufficient, consistent income to cover would-be mortgage repayments, lenders will consider your application.
Specialist lenders
A common mistake people make is to only visit high street banks when looking for a mortgage, especially if their circumstances aren’t totally straight forward. Where standard banks create mortgage products for the masses, specialist lenders focus more on individual cases, which they’re more likely to approve. Independent mortgage brokers could help you find the best doctor mortgage rates available to you. That includes going through specialist lenders if your application is more complex.
