Hi - sounds like you've got a good plan. For the deposits, I believe lenders will look for a logical explanation for any deposits made that are out of the ordinary, so you should be prepared to offer up an explanation, as you did in your op, to the lender/underwriter (perhaps in letter form, not sure). From what I've seen, your credit score looks good for a loan. I would do a Debt-to-Income percentage (front and back) based on your annnual income, divided by 12 and your monthly obligations/debts. You'll want to see arount a 29% DTI for front end and around 36% backend (VA goes to 41% or so and doesn't do front end DTI). There is some leeway but I think it depends on which program and which lender you are choosing. Best of luck with your loan qualification letter. Remember to get an approval letter later on as that's the better of the two letters to be armed with
The Restaurant work & the Pressure washing jobs are great for paying your debt down, However, you will need a 2 year history on your tax returns if you want to be able to use it as "Qualifying Income"
Thanks,
