Physician Loan FAQ — Illinois

Can I get a physician loan if I'm relocating to Illinois?
Absolutely. Sean works with physicians relocating to Illinois 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 Northwestern Feinberg. Can I buy now?
Yes. Physician loan programs let you qualify based on your attending salary — not your resident income. Many Illinois residents buy 60-90 days before starting their attending role.
Does Sean work with physicians in Chicago and Naperville?
Sean is licensed nationwide and works with physicians in every Illinois city. U.S. Bank provides the same physician loan programs 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. U.S. Bank portfolios these loans — they want the long-term relationship.
Can I build a home in Illinois with a physician loan?
Yes. U.S. Bank offers construction-to-permanent loans that combine your build financing and permanent mortgage into a single close. Available for physician-qualified borrowers building in Illinois.
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.
