Good DTI

Your DTI looks favorable to most lenders.

As a general guide, most lenders prefer a DTI of 36% or lower, will often go up to 43–50% depending on loan type, and may decline above that. VA loans are typically more flexible than conventional loans on this front, especially with strong residual income or full automated underwriting approval.
