Understanding Debt-to-Income (DTI) Ratio

The debt-to-income (DTI) ratio is a financial ratio that compares a person's monthly debt payments to their gross monthly income. Lenders use this ratio to measure an individual's ability to manage monthly payments and repay debts.

DTI Ratio Formula

DTI Ratio = (Total Monthly Debt Payments / Gross Monthly Income) * 100

  • A lower DTI ratio generally indicates a healthier financial situation.
