Frequently Asked Questions

How much of my income should go to housing?

A common guideline is that total housing costs (EMI + taxes + insurance) shouldn't exceed 28-40% of your gross monthly income, depending on other debt obligations.

What is the debt-to-income ratio?

Debt-to-income ratio compares your total monthly debt payments to your gross monthly income. Lenders typically prefer this ratio to stay below 40-43% for mortgage approval.

Does a larger down payment help me afford more house?

Yes, a larger down payment reduces the loan amount needed, which can increase the total house price you can afford while keeping your EMI within budget.
