1. What is Physician Banks Mortgage?

Physician mortgage programs are specialized loan products designed specifically for medical professionals. These programs often feature more flexible underwriting standards, lower down payment requirements, and may not require private mortgage insurance (PMI) even with smaller down payments.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard mortgage payment formula:

\[ Payment = P \times \frac{r (1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n - 1} \]

Where:

\( P \) — Principal loan amount (USD)
\( r \) — Monthly interest rate (decimal)
\( n \) — Total number of monthly payments

Explanation: This formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to fully amortize a mortgage loan over its term, including both principal and interest components.

3. Benefits of Physician Mortgage Programs

Details: Physician mortgage programs typically offer higher debt-to-income ratios, consider future earning potential, may allow for medical school debt to be excluded from debt calculations, and often provide more flexible down payment options compared to conventional mortgages.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the principal loan amount in USD, annual interest rate as a percentage, and loan term in years. The calculator will compute your estimated monthly mortgage payment based on standard amortization formulas.
