When calculating DTI, will the underwriter consider the new proposed payment of the loan (PITI) along with any HOA + mininum monthly payments to ensure it falls below 36% for the best possible rate?
Yes, the DTI includes the new mortgage payment (P&I, taxes, insurance, HOA dues) & all of your other monthly debt payments (credit cards, student loans, personal loans, car loans, other mortgages, etc.). It doesn't need to be below 36% though, that is from 20+ years ago.
