FACILITY TYPES

What Type of Medical Facility Are You Financing?

Healthcare real estate is recession-resistant and highly favored by lenders. Each facility type has unique financing considerations.

Medical Office Building (MOB)
Multi-tenant physician suites
Multi-specialty buildings housing physicians, therapists, and diagnostic labs. Often near hospitals. Strong tenant demand and low vacancy. Premium financing available for hospital-adjacent locations.
Dental / Veterinary Practice
Owner-occupied, specialized buildout
Single-practitioner or group practices with specialized plumbing, X-ray shielding, and exam rooms. SBA 504 is the most popular financing — 10% down with TI costs rolled into the loan.
Urgent Care / Surgical Center
Outpatient, high-revenue per sqft
Free-standing urgent care, ambulatory surgical centers (ASC), and specialty clinics. Higher buildout cost but strong revenue. Lenders evaluate both property and practice financials.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is medical office real estate considered recession-resistant?

Healthcare demand is non-cyclical. People need medical and dental care regardless of economic conditions. Medical tenants typically sign long-term leases (5–10+ years), and healthcare spending grows consistently. Lenders view medical office as one of the lowest-risk CRE asset types.

Can I include buildout costs in my medical office loan?

Yes. SBA 504 and 7(a) both allow tenant improvement costs to be rolled into the total project financing. This includes exam room construction, X-ray shielding, specialized plumbing, ADA compliance, and medical equipment installation. One loan covers everything.

I'm a dentist looking to buy my first office. What's the best option?

SBA 504 is typically the best fit — 10% down, fixed rate for 20–25 years, and buildout costs included. You need 2+ years of practice history and the property must be at least 51% occupied by your practice. This is one of the most common SBA use cases.

Do medical office buildings appraise differently?

Yes. Medical offices are appraised as special-purpose properties. The appraiser considers the cost of specialized buildout (which may not transfer to general office use), tenant creditworthiness, and the local healthcare market. Purpose-built medical spaces may appraise lower on a per-sqft basis than general office but command higher rents.

Can I lease part of my medical building to other providers?

Yes. As long as your practice occupies 51%+ of the space (for SBA), you can lease the rest to complementary providers — specialists, therapists, labs, pharmacies. Rental income from co-tenants helps offset your mortgage and may be counted in underwriting.

What if I'm buying a medical condo unit in a larger building?

Medical condos are financeable through SBA and conventional loans. The lender evaluates both your unit and the overall building's HOA structure, reserves, and common area maintenance. Some lenders specialize in medical condo financing.
