Personal and business lending should fit together. We coordinate both so practice growth doesn't compromise the home loan.

Common challenges

Where this profession often hits friction.

Recent practice purchase or expansion

New business debt can compress serviceability on paper. Lender choice and add-backs make a material difference.

Associate vs principal income

How you structure your associate or principal income affects how each lender reads it.

Mixed PAYG and ABN income

Many dentists hold both PAYG and contractor income - packaged together it can be powerful, but only with the right lender.
