Buyer's debt-to-income ratio is very important factor to decide about mortgage. This is the figure lenders use to determine how much mortgage debt the buyer can handle, and the maximum loan amount he will be offered. The ratio is based on how much personal debt he is carrying in relation to how much he earns. This is expressed as a percentage. Generally Mortgage lenders generally use a ratio of 36 percent as the guideline for how high the debt-to-income ratio should be. A ratio above 36 percent is seen as risky, and the lender will likely either deny the loan or charge a higher interest rate. Another good guideline is that no more than 28 percent of the gross monthly income goes to housing expenses. To calculate the exact debt amount the buyer can carry is to find the gross monthly income before taxes and multiply by 0.36 factors. The net amount so calculated will be the affordable and allowable monthly debt payment of the debtor. Higher factor can also be allowed for certain class of buyers but that might increase the interest rate on the loan amount.
