Question about qualifying

My hubby is w2 employee, worked for same company for 21 years but his income fluctuates a lot from year to year. His annual salary is 140 but is bonused each year based on performance. Last year his bonus was 125, this year 318. We would like pp to be around 600 to 650. We will have no debt and 15 percent down. Credit score around 700. Is this reasonable! by Sonomamei833 from , California. Feb 4th 2014 Reply

Hello, mortgage guidelines are pretty standard all across United States. You should not have any problems for income qualification.

You shouldn't have any problems, and they will most likely average the two years bonus, but either way sounds as if you will be in good shape.

Your best bet would be to contact a professional here on lender411 or a localcommunity bank to provide you some options. One of the items that the Loan Officer will ask for is 2 years tax returns. Does your husband take any unreimbursedbusiness expenses? if so, that can change your debt to income ratio's-

Lenders will average his last two years income... So talk to a local mortgage broker in your area for exact qualifying numbers.

Sounds like you shouldn't have a problem qualifying based on the information you provided. The incomes will be averaged over the two years since they vary. Contact several local mortgage brokers to see if you qualify. If you are looking to purchase in California we can help you out - feel free to give us a call!

As others are saying, you should be okay as long as the details of your application match up with what you are saying and depending on your tax return info. To make sure, pick an experienced, reputable mortgage person and have them do a "credit approval" where your income and assets will be reviewed and you'll have an approval subject to finding a property and other final details. I can help: pdumouchel@primelending.com or http://pdumouchel.primelending.com Good luck!
