Affordability Ratios
The 28/36 rule is standard in mortgage lending: housing costs should not exceed 28% of gross income, and total debt payments should not exceed 36%. These are maximum qualifications; actual comfortable affordability may be lower.
Conservative Affordability
Financial advisors often recommend the 25% rule—limiting housing costs to 25% of take-home pay—to ensure adequate room for savings, emergencies, and lifestyle expenses.
