Home Equity Loan with boarder income or high DTI , Great Credit

Jamie Lafollette
Posted

Just got some very disappointing news that our VA refinance will not go through because my husband (married last year) has not been on the title for 6 months .

We are looking for 100k to do some remodeling (new roof , new siding, new windows) 

Property just appraised at 975,000

we owe 453,000

Our problem is we have an ADU on the property ( without a separate address ) that lenders are considering that income boarder rent despite its on our tax return and we have a year lease.

Current income is 72340 a year plus the 27600 rental income . 

Credit scores are 750 and 780 

Any suggestions on a lender that might consider that boarder income for an equity loan ? Or would accept a high DTI ratio

Thank you !
