Professional LMI Waiver

Waived LMI Home Loans

If you are in an eligible profession or fit a lender's exception policy, you may be able to borrow above 80% LVR without paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). That can mean major upfront savings and a faster path into the market.

Approval typically depends on your profession, current registration, income profile, loan size, property type and lender policy. Our brokers identify the right lender combination for your specific situation.

Eligible profession groups

Best for

Medical professionals, accountants, lawyers and other eligible professionals who want to preserve cash while still borrowing at a high LVR. Particularly valuable for early-career professionals with strong income but limited savings.

Eliminate LMI upfront

LMI can cost $15,000–$40,000+ on a typical professional's purchase price. Waiving it keeps that capital in your pocket.

Enter the market sooner

You don't need to wait until you've saved a full 20% deposit. With an LMI waiver, an 85–90% LVR loan is achievable for eligible borrowers.

Preserve cash flow

Early-career professionals often carry HECS debt and have high incomes but relatively little accumulated savings. Waived LMI bridges that gap.
