Mortgage qualification guidelines

Profile picture for MComeau
I have good credit and I am looking to qualify for a purchase loan for a monthly payment up to 1500. A mortgage of 1500 will bring my DTI up to 66%. Are there lenders that will approve such a loan or is 66% too high? The 1500 alone is 38% of my income and the back end expenses bring it up to 66%.

If you are over 80% LTV on conventional, no luck there.  PMI companies have set total fixed DTI to 41%.  If you are below 80% LTV it is a possibility given credit scores and reserves after closing etc....  You should consult with your Loan Officer for all applicable guidelines.
