Physician Loan FAQ — South Dakota

Can I get a physician loan if I'm relocating to South Dakota?
Absolutely. Sean works with physicians relocating to South Dakota 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 USD Sanford School of Medicine. Can I buy now?
Yes. Physician loan programs let you qualify based on your attending salary — not your resident income. Many South Dakota residents buy 60-90 days before starting their attending role.
Does Sean work with physicians in Sioux Falls and Rapid City?
Sean originates in all 50 states. He works with physicians in every South Dakota 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 South Dakota 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 South Dakota.
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.
