Thank you for educating us how DTI is calculated. I have spoken to several Lenders and didn't quite understand how our debts affected the pre-approval amount. Now it's very clear and after watching this, we will hold off our decision to buy.
Your explanation was paced at a speed I could understand, and your visuals were easily comprehensible. Thank you so much for this useful introduction.
Why is Nicole so cool and clear and smart? This is the type of stuff High Schools should teach. Not “Texas History”, something no one cares about. I bet not even colleges teach. Nicole is amazing!
More money to be made off of people when they don't know about finances. Keep 'em dumb you know?

You're welcome:)
I love your explanation. Now, how about the other expenses like, utilities and home expenses?
Got it Thank you...
My parents are from Arkansas. I am seriously considering buying my first home but working on credit and paying down debts
Thank you sweetie, love you 😘
Oh wow, we may have been ready years ago😮
I just discovered your videos and I love the thorough explanations in easy to understand language. If I am self employed, which figure on my 1040 tax returns do I use to calculate gross wages? Thank You!
I am so happy that you find the videos helpful! 😊 As a self employed individual lenders are going to look at your net income after deductions. They will look at your most recent 2 years of tax returns and divide the net income by 24 months to give them a typical monthly income. One of the big obstacles is the fact that it is net income. When I buy homes, I have to go through the same process.
I understood DTI.
Great video. Thank you.
Is IRS tax payment plan calculated into debt income ratio? Thank you.
Clear, simple, and helpful. Thank you for the content!
Glad it was helpful!
I’m a Disabled vet that makes over well over 6figures per year and I have 0 debts no credit card no car payment and I was told today that I no longer qualify for my loan.
I had 1 job paying 140k per year which I lost due to layoff And one paying 110k per yr which I still have
And I get disability income of 2500 per month.
This is the America I bled for.
Also include alimony and child support obligation in DTI ratio
If I am married will debt to income ratios be combined? Great content. I’ve already watched 3 videos, will subscribe now ☺️
To find fast 45% debt ratio just multiply your income 5000 by 0.45. In example 5000 × 0.45 = 2250 $
Wow truly you are Amazing I finally got it , I watched so many similar videos I was not able to get it , I hope you don’t mind if I send your videos to my friends?
Happy to help! Please share! 😊
I pulled from my 401k and paid off my car and credit cards and then just saved the rest. looking to buy a house by the end of this year fingers 🤞
I like this video. Its so easy to understand on your explanation. You shoud try teacher too. 🤣❤️❤️
Haha I did think about being a teacher when I was in college 😂
I owe about $50,000 in credit card debt that has my score unacceptable for a home loan right now. Best thing I can do is pay down as much as possible in the next 18 months and then see about where everything looks. There's no way I can get approved at this time, there's too many derogatory marks on the report, now I see how to play the game.
What’s would be the total amount you think we should have in savings for a house aside from grants and loans?
I understand we don’t need to have a big amount of savings because of the programs or loans but what would be a safe zone per say for ourselves to finally say ok we think we’re ready to commit into searching for a home?
We’re looking into start with our home process but so far we only have around 5,000 in savings I’m a little worried that it won’t be enough after grants or the loans but we would be a first time home buyers
The video was very interesting but im just curious, rather than all the dividing to find out the dti to find the 45%. If you know your gross income, why not just find 45% of whatever the gross income is? It seems much simpler. Then figure out your debts and whats left would be what you qualify for with a mortgage payment.
What is included in the mortgage payment? Just principal & interest? Or other things?
Thanks for the video! It was very helpful. Does co-signing for an apartment lease count towards “debt” in the DTI?
Not usually!
Yes 👍 I now get it! Why does my lender want to sell my car in order to qualify for a home loan? My car payment is $442.85 and my bal is $3900. I bought this car in 2016 off the showroom and it only has 3900 miles on it…
Are property taxes, pmi, and homeowners insurance included in this calculation?
When calculating monthly debt to income ratio, is rent included in the monthly Dept payment?
Rent is not included in your monthly debts when calculating your DTI.
@@NicoleNark Your new proposed house payment will be.
If I'm refinancing my mortgage, combining my 1st and 2nd mortgage, do I use my "Pre" or "Post" refinance mortgage amount for calculating my DTI?
When you calculate mortgage does it include home owners insurance etc or is it just the principal and interest?
If you’re paying off IRS or any other payments that are being drafted from your checking acct
The mortgage company’s will factor that in
I pay 250 a month for IRS payments that aren’t on my credit report
And the mortgage company added it to my debt to ratio
Child support alimony anything youre paying except utilities phone bill
They want to know and the mortgage companies will find out when they pull your bank statements
Can I include monthly avg rent from other properties?
Thank you so much for this video! Quick question. How come we use the gross income and not the net? Isnt the net the actual money you have ( after taxes ) ?
Good question Jorge! It is the job of the lender to sell you a loan. They do not necessarily care how practical your payment is after you close on the loan. So lenders will use your gross income when calculating how much you can afford. It is your job to make sure that you have enough take home pay to feel comfortable with those payments!
If my husband was self employed the past twenty years and he has now started a new job within the same field but for a company, how long do we need to wait to apply? Do we wait for a whole year after him starting to file taxes to show his yearly gross? We had trouble in the past getting approved since he was self employed and after deductions his pay didn’t look like a lot. This is all new to us.
Is that just the mortgage payment or do you have to figure taxes and insurance into it?
Hi miss Narc how can I aquire a home with bad credit and little down payment
Does using a credit card for all monthly expenses but paying off that card every month without interest hurt your back end debt to income ratio?
Hi. I had several credit cards that I have paid off and now have a zero balance. I have left the accounts open to help with my credit score but it now appears that those would also be factored into my DTI even though they are paid off? So do you recommend me closing them out and watching my credit score drop or Leaving them open and effecting my DTI?
Does the property tax and home owner's insurance go in the calculation of the DTI too or is it just principle + interest along with car payments..etc?
I'm trying to calculations but I just don't get it. I can understand yours and how you explain everything is so simple but I just can't figure mines out...
Are taxes, ins, & pmi included in the 1250 payment?
Does cell phone bill factor ?
Superrr Helpful and easy to understand!!! When applying for a loan as a married couple and making $50K. Can I make my numbers based on a Gross income of $100K so that our DTI is lower and the number we can afford higher to show the bank?
If you will both be on the loan, the incomes and debts of each of you will be added into the DTI calculation
If you have student loans that are in forbearance are they used to calculate your DTI?
Hi, would this be the case with a guarantee usda loan in the sense of gross income because I'm a 1099 and my taxes show an adj of line 50000
