What does my DTI ratio need to be to be approved for a loan?

FHA will generally allow up to 55% or so. Conventional is up to 50%. There are some other options as well depending on your situation.If you would like help with this or have any other questions you are welcome to reach out to me at 203-299-2034 or via email at: gpomeroy@boemortgage.com.

Depends on what your credit score is if it is above 620 you can get what's called an AUS approval on FHA to ratios of Front End of 46.99% and Back end of 56.99% if it's below 620 dtil will be less but we can still lend down to a 580 credit score just lower dti.

It depends on the loan product you are applying for, what your credit scores, what other compensating factors you might have, etc.. Also, when calculating your DTI.. it's important to let a professional do the calculation.. most folks don't calculate it correctly, and will usually come up with a DTI that's higher than actual. We have to include all payments on all debts... but we do not count your "Bills".. like cell phone, car insurance etc.. those items are always ignored.. For FHA.. the highest is 57%.. for Conventional, it's 50%.. But there are other programs which have benefits of zero down, but you can only go as high as 43% to 45%.. I'm a preferred Lender with California and Arizona being my primary markets.
