What Is a Debt-to-Income (DTI) Ratio?

Your Debt-to-Income (DTI) ratio compares how much you owe every month to how much you earn. Lenders use it to judge how comfortably you could take on a new loan payment, such as a mortgage, on top of what you already owe.

Back-End vs. Front-End DTI

The back-end DTI ratio includes every recurring monthly debt: housing costs, credit cards, student loans, auto loans, and any other liabilities, divided by your gross monthly income. The front-end DTI ratio only looks at housing-related costs, such as rent or mortgage, property tax, HOA fees, and insurance, divided by your gross monthly income.

What Counts as a Good DTI Ratio?

Generally, a back-end DTI at or below 35% is considered comfortable, a ratio between 35% and 50% is workable but leaves less breathing room, and a ratio above 50% is considered very stressful and can make it difficult to qualify for additional credit.
