Welcome back to another insightful episode of The Physicians and Properties Podcast with your host, Dr. Alex Schloe!

In this solo episode, Dr. Schloe unpacks two of the most powerful, yet often overlooked, loan products available to physicians and veterans: the physician loan and the VA loan. These no-money-down financing strategies helped him buy his first investment property during residency for just $58 out of pocket—and that property now cash flows $1,200/month and has doubled in equity.

Whether you’re in residency, on active duty, or just getting started in real estate, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you start investing before you think you're ready—without needing hundreds of thousands in the bank.

💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔️ How the physician loan works—and why banks offer it with $0 down
 ✔️ The differences between physician loans and VA loans
 ✔️ How to use these loans for house hacking during residency or military service
 ✔️ Real-life examples of residents and veterans building wealth with these strategies
 ✔️ Tips for finding lenders that offer physician and VA loan products
 ✔️ Common mistakes to avoid when using low/no-down-payment financing

🔥 Key Takeaways:

 ✔️ Physician loans often overlook student debt and count future income
 ✔️ These are not unicorn deals—doctors and veterans are doing this right now
✔️ Your journey to financial freedom doesn’t have to wait until after training

💥 Bonus: If you’re a physician, dentist, or veteran ready to take action but unsure where to start, this episode will give you the clarity—and the confidence—to make your first move.
