Frequently Asked Questions

How is my borrowing power calculated?

Your borrowing power is estimated based on your income, expenses, existing debt obligations, and current interest rates. Lenders typically use a debt service ratio to determine how much you can borrow while maintaining an acceptable level of financial risk.

How can I improve my borrowing power?

To increase your borrowing power: reduce existing debts, especially credit card limits; increase your income or save for a larger deposit; reduce discretionary spending for at least 3-6 months before applying; and maintain a good credit score by paying bills on time.

What's the difference between pre-approval and borrowing power?

Borrowing power is an estimate of how much you might be able to borrow based on your financial situation. Pre-approval is a more formal assessment by a lender that conditionally approves you for a specific loan amount after reviewing your documentation and credit history.

What factors affect my home loan application?

Key factors include: your income and job stability, existing debts and living expenses, credit score and history, the size of your deposit, the property type and location, your age and loan term, and current interest rates and lending policies.

How accurate is this calculator?
