🏠 What is HEM, and how does it affect your home loan borrowing capacity?
When you apply for a home loan, banks don’t just look at your income. They also assess your living expenses.
💡 HEM (Household Expenditure Measure) is a benchmark some lenders use when assessing household expenses.
Your household size, income and lifestyle can influence the assessment.
Why does this matter? Your assessed expenses can affect how much you may be able to borrow.
📌 Save this before applying for a home loan!
