Your debt service ratio :
Note: If your debt service ratio is over 40%, the probability of obtaining a loan is reduced significantly. The lower your ratio, the higher the probability of obtaining a loan at a reasonable interest rate.
Remember that this debt service ratio does not take into account your personal lifestyle and priorities (travel, restaurants, activities, etc.). By your accepting a new loan, the payments may affect your quality of life. In other words, just because a mathematical formula says you can borrow, it does not mean that you should borrow. Consider it carefully.
