Mortgage Lenders will be looking over your debt-to-income ratio (DTI). The equation is as follows: Monthly Debt Payments (Including Future Monthly Mortgage Payments, Taxes, Insurance, and Mortgage Insurance) ÷ Monthly Income (Before Taxes) = Your Debt-to- Income Ratio (DTI) The lower your Debt-to-Income, the greater chances you have at Re몭nancing.
