How Lenders Decide How Much You Can Afford

Lenders look mainly at your debt-to-income ratio (DTI): your total monthly debts, including the new house payment, divided by your gross monthly income. Many conventional and FHA approvals allow DTIs in the mid-40s to around 50%, depending on credit, reserves and the program.

Your down payment, credit score and interest rate all change the answer. This calculator gives you a starting point; a quick review with us turns it into a real number.

How to Use It
  1. Enter your gross monthly income
  2. Add your monthly debt payments (car, student loans, cards)
  3. Enter your down payment and an estimated rate
  4. See the price range you may qualify for

Frequently Asked Questions

What DTI do lenders allow?
It varies by program. Conventional and FHA loans often approve up to the mid-40s or around 50% with strong compensating factors; some Non-QM programs allow up to 50%.
Does a bigger down payment raise my price range?
Yes. More down lowers the loan amount and payment, and with 20% down on a conventional loan you avoid PMI.
I am self-employed. How is my income counted?
If your tax returns understate your income, a bank statement loan may let you qualify using deposits instead.
