How is borrowing power determined?


Borrowing power is determined by your income, expenses, credit history, loan-to-value ratio, interest rates, savings, loan term, and dependents. These factors collectively help lenders evaluate your ability to repay the loan and decide the maximum amount they’re willing to lend.


How to Increase Borrowing Power


  • Boost Income: Increase earnings through raises, side hustles, or rental income.

  • Cut Expenses: Reduce unnecessary spending and create a budget.

  • Pay Off Debts: Clear loans and lower credit card balances.

  • Improve Credit Score: Pay on time and avoid multiple loan applications.

  • Lower Credit Card Limits: High limits reduce borrowing power.

  • Shop for Better Rates: Choose lenders with lower interest rates.

  • Save More: A larger deposit lowers the lender’s risk.
