We unpack how first-time buyers can now secure 100% finance not just on property, but on goodwill too, thanks to a major shift in bank credit policy that lifts the goodwill cap to £750,000 per dentist. That change opens the door for solo and joint buyers to fund real-world practice prices, while still meeting the hard test that matters most: serviceability.We walk through how lenders assess cash flow, why extending goodwill terms from 15 to 20 years can make the numbers work, and how pricing bands change with loan-to-value. Expect straight talk on margins over base, what a small deposit does or doesn’t do to your rate, and how development budgets fit in. If you plan to invest in equipment or upgrades, we outline the trade-offs between short-term development loans and including improvement capital upfront over a longer term to protect cash flow.For current owners eyeing a second site, we explain how to release equity from existing goodwill or freehold to build a workable deposit and still leverage 100% funding on the new acquisition. We also explore the market backdrop: banks competing for healthcare clients, long-outdated caps finally moving, and what this policy “arms race” means for buyers ready to act. Throughout, we emphasise case-by-case modelling, realistic owner drawings, and the refinance play once performance lifts and leverage falls.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.
