Of course, just like reviewing a patient’s medical history when diagnosing a patient, each application is considered on a case-by-case basis and Lenders will need to review your financial situation before providing you with an LMI waived mortgage offer or these special benefits. They will also seek confirmation of your employment as a medical practitioner and evidence of certain insurance covers being in place prior to approving your loan.
These special benefits may be available for applications in either the Medical Professional’s own name, or in the name of related companies or trusts provided direct ownership and/or directorship by the applicant is evident. Eligibility is not dependent upon all borrowers being employed as an eligible Medical Professional.
