Hi I am trying to purchase a home through FHA and my current monthly debt is $369.00 and my monthly income before taxes is $2560 what would be my changes of receive a mortgage of $88,054.
I think based on this data there is agood chance, but FHA not only looks at Debt to incoemr atio but also other factors like
credit score - 620 is required for the FHA loan, that's minimum
Employment - you need to show two years of emplyment history
Down payment - minimum 3.5% down with MIP and an upfront MIP of 1.75%

Hi ity,
You do not have too much of debt obligations and your income also looks ok. Thus your debt-to-income ratio does not seem to be a problem for you. However, your credit scores are an important factor in determining your creditworthiness. What are your scores?
