Now that you have calculated your yearly and monthly gross incomes you will need to track you debt and expenses. For some people this can be a painful experience and people often omit major expenses, however, it is in your best interest to include everything so you do not end up getting a mortgage you cannot afford to pay monthly. When you expect to apply for a mortgage the two best things you can do are:
- Pay off as much debt as you can
- Make sure your credit is in good.
Homebuyers who have the best credit get the best interest rates and terms for their mortgage.
