And is it as simple as they do not consider DTI for loan approval or something else? Mine was calculated at 48% and cited as the reason I did not qualify with the last company I was working with. by tallulahreznick42... from Dona Ana, New Mexico. Jun 20th 2014
All conforming lenders are required to verify you have the ability to repay the mortgage.. the federal government has made new laws regarding the maximum DTI for conventional financing, while allowing government programs (FHA, VA, USDA) a postponement of implementation, so these loan programs are currently exempt. For conventional, it's 43% but with strong compensating factors, the can go as high as 48%. For FHA, VA, & USDA, you can go as high as 50% or even higher for some lenders.. It's odd that your lender did not give you other loan options.. typically I see this when borrowers go to the local bank or credit union as opposed to a mortgage broker.. the bank/credit union "Loan Officer" is merely an application taker, and not really experienced in seeking out the best loan for the borrower.. but not the same with the broker.. it's their specialty.. ..
