What are my chances?

 

I am about to start looking our first house, my limit is 250K (max 300K). Below are my financial details.

 

Salary: 100K

 

Down payment up to: 20%

 

EQ Fico: 770 plus (other two should be in the same range)

 

Amex 20K: paid in full every month

 

Chase 7.5K: just using it to keep it active

 

DCU 3K: just using it to keep it active

 

HSBC 5.1K, 0% APR, balance 2.8K, minimum payment 100 but paying 200 per month (can pay it right away just enjoying 0% APR)

 

Honda: just paid 2K, last 4 payments remaining (300 /month)

 

I support my parents and pay them $500 per month and it is kind of my fixed expense. I have no other loans or obligations. My current rent is $1,550, if it matters.

 

Should I pay off HSBC and Honda before I go for preapproval or I look ok with it?

 

Thanks for your inputs.

Re: What are my chances?

In my very humble opinion you should be fine, although if you have the ability to pay all revolving debt down, why not do it? 

 

Just my .02.

Thanks..

 

I think I will pay off auto loan by end of this month and will pay some part of HSBC balance also.

 

How can I get lowest APR? Form where I can get comparison between different banks and CU's mortgage rates?
