Money for the down payment (3% to 20%) and closing costs (2% to 5%). 📊 Credit Health
This includes your future mortgage, car loans, and student debt. ✅ Pre-Approval Status
💡 Qualification isn't just about having the money; it’s about proving you can handle the monthly commitment over the long term. To give you more specific advice, could you tell me: Are you a first-time homebuyer ? What state or city are you looking in? Do you have a specific price range in mind?
Your total monthly debt payments divided by your gross monthly income. The Goal: Most lenders prefer a DTI ratio of 43% or lower.
Lenders typically look for two years of consistent employment.
You can sometimes qualify with a score as low as 500–580.
To qualify for a home purchase, you generally need to meet four main criteria: a stable income, a healthy credit score, manageable debt, and enough cash for a down payment and closing costs. 💰 Financial Stability
