Physician Loan FAQ — New Jersey

Can I get a physician loan if I'm relocating to New Jersey?
Absolutely. Sean works with physicians relocating to New Jersey every month. You can close before you start your new role — all you need is a signed employment contract. Sean handles the timing so you can focus on the move.
I'm a resident at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson. Can I buy now?
Yes. Physician loan programs let you qualify based on your attending salary — not your resident income. Many New Jersey residents buy 60-90 days before starting their attending role.
Does Sean work with physicians in Newark and Jersey City?
Sean originates in all 50 states. He works with physicians in every New Jersey city, and the physician loan programs are the same regardless of location.
What are the down payment requirements?
No catch. Physician loan programs exist because banks recognize doctors as low-risk borrowers with high earning trajectories. Sean places these loans with a portfolio lender that keeps them on its own books — it wants the long-term relationship.
Can I build a home in New Jersey with a physician loan?
Yes. Sean offers construction-to-permanent loans through his lender that combine your build financing and permanent mortgage into a single close. Available for physician-qualified borrowers building in New Jersey.
Is the AI rate monitoring really free?
Zero cost, forever. Rosie monitors your rate multiple times a day and alerts you when savings windows open. No subscription, no hidden fees. Sean built it because physicians are too busy to track rates themselves.

Know New Jersey before you borrow

How closings work in New Jersey

After a contract is signed, both sides have an attorney-review period during which either attorney can cancel or amend the deal. Closings are attorney-run in the north and often title-company-run in the south.

Taxes and transfer costs

Property taxes are among the highest in the country and vary sharply town to town, which is why two similar houses a mile apart can carry very different monthly payments. The seller pays the state realty transfer fee, and higher-priced homes carry an additional buyer-side fee.

Insurance that shapes the file

Shore and bayfront towns carry flood-zone requirements; post-Sandy elevation certificates still shape insurance cost and availability.

Where people are buying

Bergen, Morris and Essex counties · the Jersey Shore · Princeton and Central Jersey · Hoboken and Jersey City · Cherry Hill and South Jersey. First-time and lower-down-payment programs run through the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency (NJHMFA).
