When you apply for a mortgage, lenders will take a variety of factors into account to determine whether or not you’re eligible for approval. One of the most important factors to consider is your debt-to-income ratio. A debt-to-income ratio is also used to determine how much you’re eligible to borrow from the lending institution, which then determines the type of home or neighbourhood you can buy in.
As competition and home prices are increasing, it’s normal for buyers to feel overwhelmed and a little hesitant about entering the market. If you’re planning to buy a home during this time, here are some ways you can better prepare for this purchase.
A down payment is the amount of money that a home buyer is paying towards the purchase price of a home. For example, if you are buying a home for $800,000 and you have saved $160,000 to put towards the purchase price, the $160,000 is your down payment. Important: your down payment should not take up all of the money you have allocated to your home purchase, there are other closing costs (land transfer fee, real estate lawyer, etc) that you will need to account for.
