Hello my name is Randy and welcome to WeFindLenders.com this is a new episode
[9]
idea we're doing and it's based on people who have asked for specific loans
[15]
to purchase different things this one is about someone who wanted to buy a
[21]
motorcycle and they wanted to borrow $50,000 I'm not sure how much he had for
[29]
a downpayment or how much he had saved or how much his bike cost but wanted
[34]
$50,000 to be borrowed so anyways we have a nice little picture of a
[39]
motorcycle Harley Davidson you can see why someone would want to buy one there
[46]
pretty good-looking right anyways so let's get on with the actual loan and
[54]
what we do to figure this out to try to give a good answer on how much of a loan
[59]
you can afford the best thing we can do is take a look at a DTI calculator also
[65]
known as a debt to income ratio calculator we have a link here write
[70]
four for me here already and that takes us to this calculator this is Ashley a
[77]
calculator a shout-out goes to company called good calculators calm and
[87]
debt-to-income so let's try their debt to income ratio calculator and see if
[94]
you can afford to borrow $50,000 you scroll down a little bit here they have
[99]
a lot of information about their loan calculators and we have where we can
[105]
enter some of the particulars in this case this is Andrew he lives in Ohio if
[113]
you're wondering where we get this information from it's from a lot of loan
[118]
websites we've had over the years since 2003 where people have written in or
[124]
made comments asking requesting loans and this is just an example that
[129]
happened probably a long time ago but it still works now so let's move on so
[138]
gross monthly income in this case we went with some of it's been prefilled
[145]
out but anyways five thousand dollars is the gross monthly income am i thinking I
[152]
have a list of the basic items here let's see yeah
[157]
here we go monthly income before tax was five thousand and let's see then we have
[168]
partners before partners income before taxes zero child support alimony zero
[172]
extra income is twelve hundred so let's go back to the calculator and put zero
[180]
for that and other income twelve hundred dollars okay so that's it pretty well
[187]
for monthly income and now we can take a look at mortgage and rent what have you
[197]
in this case it was rent or eleven eleven hundred dollars total and let's
[208]
take a look here property tax is zero obviously it's a rental condo and HOA
[214]
fees zero home insurance zero so vehicle loan $650 so let's put that in our
[221]
calculator car loan six hundred and fifty dollars I believe there was zero
[230]
for a personal loan let's scroll down a bit bit student loans no credit card
[241]
minimum no actually no sorry credit card minimum payment seventy-five dollars
[249]
okay it's just entered 75 then alimony child
[254]
support zero and other debt was zero so now we can calculate this and you see
[261]
the update of the numbers down below coming in with a debt to in
[265]
ratio of twenty nine point four four percent so we explained here they'd
[273]
explain actually on good calculators calm a back-end debt-to-income ratio of
[278]
twenty nine point four four percent your credit risk level is modern back in
[283]
front-end debt to income ratio is seventeen point seven four percent
[287]
credit risk level is considered low total monthly income $6,200 total
[294]
monthly debts 1825 and then we have a nice little pie chart here with an
[299]
income breakdown household debts other debts and remaining so you know all
[307]
information in this looks like a a healthy debt to income ratio and some
[313]
way somebody who could get a loan no problem they should shouldn't have an
[318]
issue with this right but we have to take into consideration credit score so
[326]
let's go back and take a look I think I've got this information already
[331]
entered here so we give the good example the credit score was 640 so you know he
[338]
wants to borrow $50,000 to buy this motorcycle debt-to-income is twenty nine
[343]
went for four percent we always want to see someone's debt to income ratio below
[350]
thirty five percent that's a really good round safe number to go by and we have a
[359]
little bit information about DTI here and we have an expert Emilia Josephine
[364]
Josephson she's a financial writer she's been on AOL CBS News the simple dollar
[370]
and she has a degree from the Columbia and a degree from Oxford anyways she
[376]
explains about what a healthy DTI is over here if you click on this post
[384]
explains all about what is a good debt to income ratio recommended reading I
[390]
would say you know explains everything you need to know and what numbers to
[394]
look for and like I said she comes to conclusion of thirty six percent so
[399]
we use 35% as a good safe place to be but like I say back to credit rating so
[405]
with a credit score of 640 it's cut you know it's pretty risky because the the
[411]
interest rate you would probably get for a loan with a credit score it's gonna be
[417]
quite high so that's really gonna affect his debt to income ratio of course a lot
[421]
of people would take the risk and do it
[427]
with these numbers and a bank would probably approve him but my
[432]
recommendation would be unless you really need that motorcycle you know if
[437]
there's something you want to get to work with that's something that's
[441]
completely different and maybe it's a necessity
[444]
but if it's just for pleasure and it's just for fun I would suggest holding off
[450]
on that and waiting wait till the credit score's been approved quite a bit and
[455]
get a better rate and maybe work on saving up a lot of money beforehand so
[465]
you have a nice down payment if he can hold off that would be definitely my
[470]
recommendation anyways I should point out though I have to say this because
[477]
the real experts in the room want me to say this he looked down at the bottom of
[483]
the post this is transcribed it's gonna be
[487]
transcribed in fact checked by Lance he has a degree University of Illinois so
[493]
he will transcribe and fact check this but I am NOT a specific expert I'd just
[501]
want to run through and give you some basic ideas so this goes Randy's opinion
[505]
to me in the video are completely his own and not necessarily the opinions of
[509]
the owners and our producers of WFL we find lenders calm this commentary is not
[514]
intended to be financial advice you should seek professional advice from an
[518]
expert in your area before making any financial decisions okay so there you
[523]
have it on the post you'll have all this information will be transcribed in will
[528]
however are a white board here for years a look at
[533]
I hope this has been helpful it's always good to use a DTI calculator before
[539]
considering any kind of a loan thank you and farewell from WeFindLenders.com
