Decide On Priorities

Many people are surprised to discover that they are unable to get a mortgage they feel they deserve. While a mortgage broker considers a variety of things when deciding how much mortgage a person is eligible for, one thing that people might not expect to influence their eligibility is their existing loans.

Sure, we all know that being in huge debt may affect our loan eligibility, but only if aren’t paying it back, right? The truth is, when a mortgage broker or loan officer is examining your loan eligibility, they factor in how much money you are paying back each month on any purchases made. So if you’ve recently bought a new vehicle, a big vacation, even a major entertainment system or any other large purchase, it may compromise your ability to get the house of your dreams.

Other factors that impact your loan eligibility include not just your income, but your income stability. If you have just moved jobs, or are anticipating a job change in the future, wait to do your home-hunt. For the best eligibility, loan officers want to see at least a year or more of stability in a job, with good prospects for the future. If you are considering buying a home, you need to objectively analyze if there is a layoff, or even a transfer, on the horizon.

If you have a stable, well-paying job and are really wanting to invest in the real estate market, set your priorities. Perhaps your existing car and TV are enough for now. If a home is truly what you want, continue to save a down-payment while you pay off any existing debt and avoid all large purchases. Then it’s time to get pre-qualified for a loan and begin your home search in earnest.
