DEBT-TO-INCOME CALCULATOR
 

Your debt-to-income ratio, also referred to as a "back end" ratio, is a major factor considered for mortgages, auto loans, and other large purchases. If your ratio is too high, you won't qualify for even high interest loans.

Your debt-to-income ratio analysis:

36% or less: This is an acceptable debt load to carry for most people. With this ratio, you should qualify for a mortgage or auto loan, depending on your FICO score and other factors affecting your credit.

37%-42%: This isn't too bad, but you should find a way to pay down your debt now before you get in real trouble. You may be turned down for a loan with some lenders. You also may not qualify for as large a mortgage or auto loan as you'd like.

43%-49%: You need to take action soon to get out of debt. You are at a point now where an emergency or job loss could leave you in financial ruin. Your chance of getting a Fannie Mae mortgage are slim to none if your ratio is over 42%.

50% or more: You are in a debt crisis and need to find help immediately! Ignoring this problem will not help solve it. Please call your Debt Consultant today.

QUICK FACTS
 

 

Score Power

 

Standard guidelines in the mortgage industry say that to qualify for a loan, your debt-to-income ratio should not exceed 38%.

 
 

There are three factors that lenders consider in qualifying you for a loan:

  • CREDIT - Usually based on a credit score such as FICO.

  • INCOME - That's income as it relates to your debt. The calculator to the left will give you an idea of where you stand.

  • EQUITY - The final criteria includes collateral and money for your down payment, which help to lessen the risk of the loan.
