How can I refinance my mortgage when my debt to income ratio is so high??
Many people have high debt to income ratios and can still qualify for a mortgage loan. There are many options available out there for people who have a high debt to income ratio, also referred to as DTI. One solution to a high debt to income ratio is to work with a lender that allows for a high debt to income ratio. Typical good credit lenders allow for debt ratios around 40%, although many times an automated underwriting system may qualify borrowers with a much higher DTI too. Typical below average credit score lenders will allow a maximum debt to income ratio of 50%. Then there are even a few other lenders who will allow debt to income ratios up to 55%, and sometimes even 60% on rare occasions. Consult a mortgage broker today to find the right lender for your individual situation.
