• How much can I borrow?

  How much you can borrow largely comes down to how much you earn, specifically your debt-to-income ratio (DTI). Basically, we look at what percentage of your monthly income is required to meet ongoing expenses like rent, utilities, car payments and credit card bills. You know, all the really fun stuff.
