ANZ offers a selection of competitive home loan options, and one of the most valuable for medical professionals is the LMI Waiver under the Medico Policy. This benefit allows eligible medical professionals—including doctors, dentists, optometrists, physiotherapists, and chiropractors—to purchase a home with as little as a 5 - 10% deposit while avoiding the substantial cost of Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). For many buyers, this can mean saving tens of thousands of dollars upfront.

While you can apply directly through ANZ, partnering with a knowledgeable mortgage broker can help streamline the entire process. At Eden Emerald Mortgages, we handle everything from confirming your eligibility to lodging your application, making sure all the details are accurate and deadlines are met. Plus, we compare ANZ’s offer with over 40 other lenders to help you secure the most competitive deal. Best of all, our services are completely free for you—our fees are paid by the lender, not the borrower.
By using a mortgage broker from Eden Emerald Mortgages, you’ll benefit from:
- Time Savings: Let us handle the paperwork and liaise with ANZ on your behalf.
- Tailored Advice: Our experienced team understand the ANZ Medico Policy criteria and can help you determine eligibility.
- Access to Multiple Options: If you are ineligible for ANZ Medico Policy, or the interest rates are too high, we can find you the best alternatives from other lenders.
- Advocacy: We actively negotiate with ANZ and other lenders to secure the best terms and rates for you.

Alternatives to ANZ Medico Policy
If your profession isn't covered by ANZ Medico Policy, you can check if your profession is able to access LMI waivers elsewhere, or see this list of banks and lenders that offer No LMI home loans. If you are a medical professional, have a look at this article to see where you can waive LMI.
If you don't qualify for an LMI waiver at any lenders, here are some other ways to avoid or reduce LMI costs:
- Saving a Larger Deposit: Increasing your deposit to at least 20% of the property’s purchase price eliminates the need for LMI.
- Guarantor Loans: Having a family member act as a guarantor can help you secure a loan without paying LMI.
- First Home Guarantee (FHBG): For first-time homebuyers, the Australian government’s First Home Guarantee allows eligible buyers to purchase a home with a 5% deposit without paying LMI.
