3. Importance of Professional Evaluation 👨‍💼

Matt stresses the importance of having a one-on-one meeting for a detailed analysis. A pro can give you a clearer picture of your income and debts than a general calculator can.

4. Detailed Income and Debt Analysis 🔍

The calculator gives a general overview, but a thorough evaluation looks at multiple sections of your debts and income. For example, your gross income from yearly tax returns usually isn’t the number used in calculations—there are other factors to consider.

Getting an accurate DTI provides a solid foundation for buying a house. A pro assessment gives you real numbers for your current financial standing and future planning, helping you prepare for home ownership.
