About Dr Home Investor — Our Editorial & Review Process

Dr Home Investor helps physicians build wealth through real estate. We rank and profile 600 U.S. investment markets, publish physician-focused guides, and match doctors with vetted local team members — realtors, property managers, investment lenders, turnkey providers, insurance agents, CPAs, and advisors — at no cost. Because where and how you invest is one of the biggest financial decisions you'll make, we hold our content to a high standard for accuracy, clarity, and independence. This page explains how we create, review, and maintain it.

We are a research and matching service — not an advisor

Dr Home Investor is not a lender, broker-dealer, investment advisor, or tax advisor. We do not sell property, originate loans, or manage investments. Everything we publish is educational: market data, illustrative math, and frameworks for thinking about rental real estate. Nothing on this site is personalized investment advice, and no figure we publish is a promise of returns. We help you compare markets and connect with local professionals — and we never steer you toward a specific market, property, or provider for our benefit. All housing information is provided on an Equal Housing Opportunity basis.

Who creates our content

Our market pages and guides are written by the Dr Home Investor editorial team, part of the same group behind Dr. Home Finance, which has specialized in the physician home-buying market for years. The team focuses on what makes physician investors different: demanding schedules that favor well-managed remote ownership, strong borrowing profiles that make overleverage tempting, student debt, and the tax position of a high W-2 income.

Who reviews our content

How we research and source information

Market figures — home values, rents, gross rent multipliers, estimated cap rates, property-tax rates, and regulatory notes — are drawn from public, verifiable sources and reviewed for reasonableness before publication. They are presented as illustrative screening data, not appraisals: the numbers that matter for any specific property are the ones you confirm during your own underwriting, with a local team on the ground. Where content describes a specific provider's offering, the specifics are attributed to that provider. We never invent figures.

How often we update

Housing markets and local regulations change, so we review our market pages and core guides on a recurring schedule and after any material change — for example, a meaningful shift in a market's short-term-rental rules or tax treatment.

Corrections

Accuracy matters more to us than being first. If you spot something that looks wrong on any page, tell us — we'll review it promptly and correct anything inaccurate.

How we make money

Dr Home Investor is free for physicians to use. We may be compensated by professionals and providers in our network when we connect you with them. That compensation never changes how we rank markets, the data we show, or the guidance in our articles — we don't sell placement in our market rankings, and we don't steer you toward a specific provider for our benefit. Our only job is to help you understand the landscape and build the right local team.
