Loans vs. Savings

Although it is not as bad as some college graduates I have acquired my share of student debt. My question to BP: is it more beneficial to save cash as a down payment on a first property or start cutting in whatever I can to my student loans to reduce my student debt. Just a but curious. I know DTI ratio is important when financing but is there a certain mark banks look for? Any response would be greatly appreciated.
