Generally speaking, if you go over the limits below (39% and 44%) you should either save for a larger down payment, or pay off more of your outstanding debts. Your GDS and TDS are also used when granting a mortgage pre-approval.
Ideally your GDS and TDS should be below 35% and 42% respectively.
Given that Breezeful works with 100+ lender partners, we're able to support up to 45% and 47% for GDS and TDS ratios, and up to 50% for both under certain conditions e.g. a downpayment of 35%.
