Debt-to-Income Ratio
Lenders compare your monthly debt payments to your income. A lower DTI usually opens more options and better pricing.
Cash to Close
Your down payment is only part of the upfront cost. Closing costs and points can add real dollars, and they are separate from the down payment.
Program Eligibility
Some programs have income limits. Many down payment assistance and first-time buyer programs are only available to households earning below area median income.
Reserve Requirements
Some loans require cash reserves after closing. Even when not required, having a buffer protects you from surprises.
What Actually Drives Affordability
* Affordability varies by credit, debt, rates, taxes, and fees. Use real quotes to see your true payment.
See What You Actually Qualify For
Mortgage pricing is opaque. Compare rate, points, and fees side by side so you can see the real cost. Ralo shows every line item so you can compare mortgage options more clearly.
