Ways to exceed the normal loan debt ratio

By
Real Estate Agent with CENTURY 21 Anne Arnold

You may qualify to exceed if you have the normal loan debt ratio by one of the following.

a large down payment

a demonstrated ability to pay more toward your housing expenses

substantial cash reserves

net worth enough to repay the mortgage regardless of income

evidence of acceptable credit history or limited credit use

less-than-maximum mortgage terms

funds provided by an organization

a decrease in monthly housing expenses

Even if you can exceed the ratio always take your comfort level into concideration of how much you want to owe.
