In this episode, we take a deep dive into the world of lending and property through the unique lens of an osteopath. Whether you're fresh out of university, building your patient base, or well established in practice, this conversation is designed to demystify borrowing, reduce fear, and give you a grounded understanding of what’s genuinely possible when it comes to buying a home or investment property.

Many osteopaths underestimate their borrowing power or assume lenders don’t understand the realities of allied health income. This episode aims to change that narrative.

Our guest, Andrew Jacobs, brings a rare dual perspective. As both an osteopath and a Mortgage Choice franchise owner, he has carved out a niche as an Allied Health lending specialist. Andrew has helped countless practitioners refinance, restructure their loans, or secure lending for their first home or next property.

As we hear in this insightful conversation with osteopath Tara Bain, Andrew’s background means he understands not just the numbers, but the profession, how osteopaths earn, how their income grows, and the financial challenges and opportunities that come with clinical practice.

If you would like to follow up on Andrew’s advice or if it has been more than 12 months since your last loan review, feel free to contact him directly here
