Figuring Out Your Monthly Income

When you apply for a home loan (and even long before that, when you first speak to a real estate agent) the first question may likely be "How much is your income?" In making this determination, lenders consider the income of all parties who will be owners of the property. Be prepared to provide a monthly accounting of all sources of income.
