It's so ignorant 20-something plant operators buy shite they cant afford and remain in debt the rest of their lives while the man makes money from it.

All I know is you are supposed to keep your debt to income ratio below 30% or something like that.

If you house note is 30% (or less) of your monthly income, you probably are good to go.

Income for mortgage amounts? This stupid calc says I can afford a 700k house. While I am OT rich I think this is way high. Why do they use this amount?


The real answer is because most cheat on their taxes, or at least write-off more than they should, so if they used net income no one would qualify. If nobody qualified the bank wouldn't make any money.
