Qualifying

The first qualifying number (above right) calculates your maximum monthly payment, assuming you have no long-term debt. It is computed by multiplying your total income by your housing cost ratio and dividing the result by 12. The second qualifying number takes into account your monthly debt payments, applying your total debt service ratio. Mortgage companies usually qualify you for monthly payments that are no higher than the lesser of the two results. By default, this worksheet assumes a housing cost ratio of 0.28 and a total debt service ratio of 0.36, which are standards often used for conventional mortgages. If different ratios apply in your case, change the values in the cells below.
