Lending advantages
What may be available to you.
Several lenders apply specific policies to your profession. Eligibility, limits and pricing vary - subject to assessment.
Employed vets vs practice owners
We choose lenders that read both PAYG and practice income properly, rather than penalising one.
Locum and contract income
Locum vet income is acceptable with a steady history and the right lender.
Buying with a smaller deposit
Eligible vets may borrow at higher LVRs through selected lender programs. Subject to policy.
Common challenges
Where this profession often hits friction.
Recent practice purchase or expansion
New business debt can suppress serviceability on paper. Lender choice and add-backs matter.
Inconsistent lender policy
Veterinary recognition varies more between lenders than for doctors or dentists. Lender selection matters more than the headline rate.
Recent graduates
Limited employment history can be a hurdle. The right lender weighs the secured nature of the role appropriately.
