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).
