I'm in my last year of an OBGYN residency. I've signed a contract for $200k/year with a $65k signing bonus to pay off credit card and student loan debt. We have $28k in credit card debt right now, but will be paying it all off in July. My middle FICO score is 720 and my husbands is 685. Combined, our income is 290k.
When we get approved for a home loan, should/will the mortgage company take into account that we'll be paying off all our credit card debt in July even though we'll be closing on the house in May? Also, can we expect to get competitive rates and a low down payment?
