PhysicianLoans
Are you moving or planning to buy a new home? PhysicianLoans is the national leader in providing special home financing for physicians, and AMA members can access unique services and deals to help them achieve this milestone.
Physicians with high credit scores have a very low risk of default on residential mortgages even if they have high debt, few assets, or buy a home with little down. Normally, this can cause concern for underwriters who may approve the home loan but at higher rates. In contrast, PhysicianLoans focuses exclusively on serving the unique financial needs of doctors buying homes.
The PhysicianLoans program can offer financing with less money down than standard loans, plus no PMI and expanded underwriting guidelines. Additional benefits include:

- Flexible loan programs: Does not count your full student loans against you, and no pre-payment penalty. Not to mention flexibility is important during a resident’s life when schedules are constantly changing.
- Special member benefit: AMA members can get a discount of $750 applied towards mortgage closing costs.** Be sure to let your loan officer know that you are an AMA member and eligible for the discount.

The DRS Agent Network connects you to real estate agents familiar with the special needs, timing and considerations of physicians and their families at each career stage.
Many physicians, especially those moving to a new city, have difficulties finding a trusted, reputable agent that helps them the way they need to be helped.

Each agent is highly knowledgeable about the local community and is the one best suited to meet a physician’s needs. Each agent is prepared to answer your questions about the neighborhood, schools, taxes and local housing trends to help narrow your search.
