Finance your GP practice, specialist rooms, or day surgery fit-out from lease signing to opening day. We compare 50+ lenders with specialist healthcare fitout experience.
At EasyAsset, medical fitout finance is a specialist niche we work in every day. Whether you are fitting out a GP consulting suite, specialist rooms, radiology or imaging suite, allied health practice, or a private day surgery, we work with lenders who understand the compliance requirements, long fitout periods, and clinical infrastructure costs involved in medical premises. We help practitioners navigate staged drawdown facilities, healthcare practice loans, equipment and fitout bundles, and the specific lender requirements for clinical environments including infection control fitouts, medical gas reticulation, and theatre-grade HVAC. If it needs to meet AS/NZS 3003 and your patients depend on it, we can fund it.
Medical fitout finance is structured as a staged drawdown facility aligned to your builder’s progress payment schedule. Here is how the process works from lease to opening day.
Most landlords provide a fitout guide or tenancy schedule detailing what is permitted. Some provide a landlord incentive or contribution toward fitout costs. Your finance application can begin at this stage, before any works commence.
Start your finance application as soon as your lease is signedYour fitout finance application is typically based on accepted quotes from licensed builders and tradespeople. Lenders want to see the fitout cost broken down by trade. Most lenders require at least one formal quote before approving a staged drawdown facility.
Itemised builder quotes support your applicationPre-approval means you know your funding is in place before your builder starts. This protects you from project delays caused by funding gaps mid-construction. Settlement typically occurs in stages aligned to your builder’s progress payment schedule.
Pre-approved before your builder startsUnlike a standard loan, fitout finance is drawn progressively. As your builder completes agreed milestones and issues progress claims, your lender releases the corresponding funds. You only pay interest on the amount drawn at each stage, not the full facility limit.
Interest charged only on funds drawn at each stageOn practical completion, the final drawdown is released to your builder. Your facility converts to a standard repayment schedule and you begin making repayments from your trading revenue. The fitout generates depreciable deductions from day one.
Open for business, repayments begin from trading revenueFour structures available for medical fitout finance. The right one depends on your fitout complexity, trading history, and whether you want to bundle clinical equipment with construction.
A term loan for the full fitout cost, with staged drawdowns tied to your builder’s progress payment schedule. The most common structure for medical fitouts. You repay over a fixed term of 3 to 7 years with the fitout itself as the primary security.
For smaller fitouts or businesses that do not want to use the fitout as security. No charge over the fitout asset. Typically available up to $250,000 and approved based on your business revenue and credit profile rather than asset security.
Combine the fitout construction cost with examination chairs, patient monitors, ultrasound machines, and other clinical equipment under one facility. Particularly useful when both fitout works and equipment are sourced at the same time.
If you own an existing fitout in a leased space, you may be able to sell the fitout asset to a lender and lease it back, unlocking working capital for a new fitout or other business needs without disrupting your current operation.
