Question by Mr. Canoe: What exactly is needed to get an average house loan/mortgage?
I’m wondering what exactly are the steps and requirements needed to get a house loan from a bank of say 100k-200k. If you have an average yearly income of 25k/yr is it even realistic to get a loan like that?

Best answer:

Answer by Art Vandelay
Income qualification is usually 2.5 to 3.0 times your gross annual salary. So at 25k per year you would qualify for a loan between 62, medical 500 and 75, sales 000 (depending on the lender requirements). This amount would be between 80% to 95% of the cost of the home you are buying.

You would also have to qualify based on your debt load (credit cards, car payments, etc.), and on your credit history.

  1. if u have income of 25k Gross u barely
    will get a loan for 100K and unfortunately
    will lose it within few years cause 25K
    is poverty in USA.

    to get a 200K mortgage u need a job earning
    at least 50K for 1 full year plus saving
    20K for down payment plus saving
    10K for closing costs, 3K for moving costs.

    do your self favor read and study these.
