Mortgage approval depends on your ability to repay, assessed by debt-to-income ratio, credit history, and payment likelihood. The home's appraised value must meet or exceed the purchase price, affecting the loan-to-value ratio. Down payment size influences private mortgage insurance requirements. Lenders also review funds for closing costs and may require reserves to cover future payments. Income, debt, credit, savings, and loan guidelines all impact approval.
