Built for the breadth of allied health

Physiotherapists and chiropractors. Clinic ownership comes early and equipment is constant. Multi-practitioner rooms, rehab gear and expansion all have lending paths that suit clinic cash flow.
Podiatrists. Surgical and general podiatry practices are equipment- and fitout-heavy, and often owner-operated from the first years of practice.
Optometrists. Practice purchases and refits with serious diagnostic equipment: OCT, retinal cameras, topographers. Often a dispensary business as well as a clinical one, and lenders should read it that way.
Psychologists. Room-based practices with lighter equipment but real fitout, growth and cash flow needs, plus incomes that mix salary, ABN and NDIS or Medicare-derived billings.

An honest note on how lenders treat allied health

Lender treatment of allied health professions can vary, and the advantage a specialist brings is knowing, before you apply, which of the 45+ lenders backs your profession at your stage, and how your income should be presented, because how your income is presented is the critical piece.

Home loans

For many allied health professions, selected lenders offer high-LVR lending with reduced or waived LMI, in some cases up to 95%. Where a different path is stronger for your situation, we will show you that instead. Either way you should not have to guess: we will tell you which category your profession and situation put you in within one conversation, then run the strongest available path.

Practice finance

Buying, starting or growing an allied health practice is judged on the same fundamentals as any healthcare business: recurring patient demand, referral flows and clean financials. Structured well, the practice funds its own growth. See medical practice finance for purchase, startup, fitout and expansion lending.

Equipment finance

Rehab and gym equipment, shockwave and laser units, optometry diagnostics, podiatry chairs and surgical gear, clinic IT: funding structures matched to the asset keep working capital in the clinic. See medical equipment finance for how structures and approvals run.

Car finance

Mobile and community-based allied health work puts real kilometres on a car. Leases, novated leases and chattel mortgages each suit a different setup, personal or practice. See car finance for the options.

SMSF lending

Clinic owners with self-managed super sometimes use it to buy their practice premises. It is a complex, rules-heavy area where structure matters as much as rate. See SMSF lending for how we work alongside your accountant and advisers. We arrange the lending; we do not provide financial advice.

Trevor Knowles was instrumental in assisting us in the purchase a physiotherapy clinic. His due diligence, hard work and clarity were outstanding during this process. Looking forward to working with Trevor again in the near future and would recommend to anyone for professional or personal financing.

Frequently asked questions

Do allied health professionals get medico lending benefits?

Some do, at some lenders. Inclusion and maximum LVRs vary by profession and lender across the market, more than they do for doctors and dentists. The useful answer is specific to you, and it is exactly what your call establishes before any application is made.

Which allied health professions do you work with?

Physiotherapists, chiropractors, podiatrists, optometrists and psychologists are the professions we see most, and we work across the wider allied health community. If you are unsure where you fit, ask: the conversation costs nothing.

Much of my income is ABN, NDIS or Medicare-derived. Is that a problem?

Not with the right lender. Mixed and self-employed income is normal in allied health, and lenders familiar with the sector assess it sensibly. How your income is presented is the critical piece.

Can I buy my clinic with finance?

Yes. Practice purchase, fitout and expansion lending is available for allied health businesses, structured around clinic cash flow. Start with medical practice finance.
