🤔When applying for a mortgage loan, do you the think the Bank looks at your Gross or Net Income?
(Gross income is before your taxes while Net income is after you pay taxes).
Typically, the bank takes a look at your income through your pay stubs and your tax returns.🙂
They consider your Gross Income along with your monthly debts to determined your purchase power.👈🏻
That's why I advise my clients to make estimates, structure a budget, and keep a conservative mortgage monthly payment in mind when home shopping.🙌🏻
The bank will most likely give you a preapproval to the highest debt to income ratio. That’s why I recommend to create a list of the following expenses in order to come up with a payment that makes sense for your budget:📝

- Your Monthly Net Income
- Car Payment
- Utilities
- Car Insurance & Gas
- Internet & Phone Bill
- Groceries
