Calculating Debt Ratios
The system offers powerful tools to the underwriter for analyzing an applicant’s debt-to-income ratios (total of an applicant’s debt obligation divided by that person’s regular income). The system calculates debt ratios in the Ratios section on the Summary sub screen (Applicants link) using the data in the Incomes and Liabilities sections. Information in the Incomes section comes from the Employments sub screen and the Other Incomes sub screen during application entry. The information in the Liabilities section comes from the Address sub screen, the Liabilities sub screen during application entry, and the credit bureau pull.
An underwriter may also add information to the Incomes and Liabilities sections on the Summary sub screen during the underwriting process.
The debt-to-income ratios in the Ratios section can be recalculated by including or excluding information from the Incomes section, Liabilities section and Financials sub screen.
