Will lenders these day allow for front-end ratio to be more than 28%? I need my front-end ratio be be 34%. My back-end ratio is find because I have no debt right now. For the house range I am looking at, I would be able to put 30% down payment. My credit score is at least 730. by krystalk6482 from Boston, Massachusetts. Jan 12th 2011
Fannie and Freddie are concerned with the back end ratio, AKA Debt to Income Ratio (DTI). as long as your DTI is 45% or lower, you should be OK. There may even be instances where the DTI can be as high as 48%. Joe Shamie 877-662-3321 x-102
Lenders are more concerned with the Back end ratio; exception USDA they will not budge for most borrowers
