Need Some Advice with DTI

Hey everyone first time home buyer and just want a little advice. Please make sure to read in its entirety before commenting.

Getting ready to buy a house and my estimated DTI is 41%. Which I feel slightly uneasy about but want others opinions.

Cost of house: $265000 Putting down: 20k @ 7.125% rate

My salary: $62500

Now my salary & credit are being used solely for the loan bc fiancé doesn’t have credit since we are young and she started building her credit later than I did.

Her salary: $28645

My DTI for my income alone comes out to 41%

Before taxes $91145 salaries combined After taxes $6,076 a month combined

Mortgage payment is looking to be $2100

We have no other debt.

So based solely on my salary the DTI is 41%

But w/ combined income DTI is like 34%

Is this normal nowadays? My house payment is gonna be $2100 lol so just checking

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
