FHA Debt Ratios
• FHA guidelines have been set in place
requiring borrowers to qualify according to
set debt to income ratios. These ratios are
used to calculate if a potential borrower is in
a financial position that would allow them to
meet the demands that are often included in
owning a home. The two ratios are covered
on the next four pages:
Mortgage Payment Expense To Effective
Income
• Add up the total mortgage
payment (principal and
interest, escrow deposits
for taxes, hazard
insurance, mortgage
insurance premium,
homeowners' dues, etc.).
Then, take that amount and
divide it by the gross
monthly income. The
maximum ratio to qualify is
29%. See the following
slide for examples:
Mortgage Payment Expense To Effective
Income Example
• Total amount of new house
payment: $750
• Borrower's gross monthly
income (including spouse, if
married): $2,850
• Divide total house payment
by gross monthly income:
$750/$2,850

• Add up the total mortgage payment (principal and
interest, escrow deposits for taxes, hazard
insurance, mortgage insurance premium,
homeowners' dues, etc.) and all recurring monthly
revolving and installment debt (car loans, personal

that amount and divide it by the gross monthly
income. The maximum ratio to qualify is 41%. See
the following slide for an example:
