What is borrowing power?
Borrowing power, also known as borrowing capacity, is the estimated amount a lender may be willing to lend you for a home loan. It is usually based on your income, expenses, debts, deposit, credit history, and overall financial situation.
How much can I borrow?
The amount you can borrow depends on several factors, including your income, deposit, expenses, existing debts, credit profile, loan term, and lender policies. Different lenders may assess your situation differently, so your borrowing amount can vary.
What can affect my borrowing power?
Your borrowing power may be affected by your income, employment type, living expenses, credit cards, personal loans, dependants, deposit size, interest rates, and any existing financial commitments.
Is the borrowing power result accurate?
The result is an estimate only. Actual borrowing capacity may vary between lenders and depends on your full financial position, documentation, loan type, and lender assessment criteria.
