Questions doctors ask us
Common questions from residents, fellows, and attending physicians about finding an agent, physician loans, and relocating.
What is Physician Real Estate Network?
Physician Real Estate Network is a free referral service that connects physicians, medical residents, fellows, medical students, dentists, and veterinarians with vetted local real estate agents and physician mortgage lenders. We help with buying, selling, and renting, whether you are relocating for residency or for a new position.
Is it really free for doctors and residents?
Yes. Our service is completely free for physicians, residents, fellows, and medical students. There are no hidden fees and no obligation to work with anyone we introduce you to.
How do I find a real estate agent who works with medical residents?
Tell us your program, the city you are moving to, your timeline, and whether you plan to buy or rent. A member of our team reaches out, usually within one business day, and matches you with a local agent from our network who understands residency schedules, physician financing, and the neighborhoods near your hospital.
Should I buy or rent during residency?
It depends on how long your program runs, local home prices and rents, and your own finances. Longer residencies and physician loan options can make buying worth considering, while a short program or an uncertain plan often favors renting. We will go over the numbers with you before you decide, and there is no cost to know your options.
What is a physician mortgage loan?
A physician mortgage loan is a home loan designed for doctors, including those still in residency. Many lenders offer these programs with low or no down payment and no private mortgage insurance, and some will count a signed employment contract as income. Eligibility and terms vary by lender, and we connect you with lenders who specialize in these loans.
When should I start planning my move for residency?
As soon as you match, if not before. Match Day falls on the third Friday in March and most residency programs begin around July 1, which leaves a short window to find housing. Starting early gives you the most options and the least stress, but we can help on a tight timeline too.
Can you help me find a roommate for residency?
Yes. Our Physician Resident Roommate Match helps pair you with other residents moving to the same area, which can lower your housing costs and make settling into a new city easier.
Do you only help with moves for residency?
No. We also work with attending physicians buying or selling a home, doctors relocating for a new position, and physicians building a real estate investment portfolio.
