What would my payments be?
Several factors help determine the final loan amount for your new purchase. These may include any manufacturer rebates, the value of your trade-in minus any remaining loan balance, your down payment, and other related costs. Once the loan amount is set, your interest rate and loan term will be used to estimate your monthly payment.

Back End Ratio
Also known as the debt ratio, lenders use this ratio, along with the front-end ratio, to determine the maximum loan amount. Debt ratio equals your combined monthly mortgage payment plus any other monthly debt obligations, such as credit cards and alimony, divided by your gross monthly income. Use a back-end ratio of 33% for conservative results and as high as 42% for aggressive results (usually requires excellent credit and a higher down payment).
Front End Ratio
Also known as the housing ratio, lenders use this ratio along with the back-end ratio to determine the maximum loan amount. The housing ratio equals the combined (principal + interest + taxes + insurance) monthly mortgage payment divided by your gross monthly income. For example, a combined monthly mortgage payment of $1,200 divided by gross monthly income of $4,500 equals a housing ratio of 27%. Use a front-end ratio of 28% for conservative results and as high as 36% for aggressive results (usually requires excellent credit and a higher down payment).
