You may qualify for a loan based on your part time job, depending on the income and the price range of the homes in your area. The banks would average the last 2 years income to get your monthly income to qualify. The first step should be to contact a loan officer. They would run a credit report, average your income and consider how much money you have to work with, to determine a sale price you could afford.

Sounds like a good start, but in most cases you will need a decent credit history and a down payment/reserves of some kind before you can qualify for a mortgage to buy a home.

If you're interested, you might run some numbers through a calculator here to see what you might be able to qualify for.

Are you asking if you are eligible for a mortgage?

A good starting place is to check your credit score, and evaluate your down payment and closing cost funds that you've saved up.
