Edge cases: DTI has 3 common edge cases that require special handling. This page covers the unusual situations and how to handle them.<\/p>\n

A common failure mode bookkeepers report is the dti edge case causing a denial. The fix: pre-flight check for the edge case before submission.<\/p>\n

Edge Cases: Unusual Situations and Special Handling<\/h2>\n

Edge cases: DTI has 3 common edge cases that require special handling. This page covers the unusual situations and how to handle them.<\/p>\n

Edge Case 1: Variable Income (Self-Employed)<\/h3>\n

For self-employed borrowers, income varies. The recon cutoff tool’s per-dti-variable-flag identifies the case and uses 2-year average.<\/p>\n

Edge Case 2: Co-Borrower DTI.<\/strong> For co-borrower applications, DTI is combined. The recon cutoff tool’s per-dti-combined-flag identifies the case.<\/p>\n

Edge Case 3: RSU and Stock-Based Compensation.<\/strong> For borrowers with RSU income, only the vesting portion counts. The recon cutoff tool’s per-dti-rsu-flag identifies the case.<\/p>\n

3 Common Mistakes<\/h2>\n

Mistake 1: Confusing dti with similar attributes.<\/strong> The recon cutoff tool’s per-dti-debt-to-income-confusion-flag identifies this.<\/p>\n

Mistake 2: Ignoring the edge cases.<\/strong> A common failure mode bookkeepers report is the dti edge case causing a denial. The recon cutoff tool’s per-dti-debt-to-income-edge-case-flag identifies this.<\/p>\n

Mistake 3: Using generic examples instead of real values.<\/strong> The recon cutoff tool’s per-dti-debt-to-income-real-example-flag validates the values.<\/p>\n

A common failure mode bookkeepers report is the dti edge case causing a denial. The fix: pre-flight check for the edge case before submission.<\/p>\n
