Figuring Out Your Monthly Debt

Lenders are interested mainly in your present monthly payments because they want to be sure you can handle the mortgage payment you'll be applying for. Different mortgage plans consider payments on any debt that won't be paid off within, for example, six months, nine months, or a year. Calculate the monthly debt of you and all your co-borrowers (if applicable).

Though another option that is available is the bi-weekly payment plan where the borrower pays every second week instead of once per month. This option pays off the mortgage quicker the monthly method.
