1. Are you a legal resident of the U.S.?*

Yes
No

Although we consider income of all household members, the income of the applicant with legal residency must financially qualify the household (in case the non-resident is required to be out of the country for a period of time). However, total household income must also fit within the income guidelines per family size.

2. Do you have a bankruptcy that has not been discharged/dismissed for four years?*

Yes
No

If a household has gone through a bankruptcy, the bankruptcy must have been discharged for a minimum of four (4) years prior to submitting a partnership application and the household must be able to demonstrate a pattern of improved management and payment of debt.

3. Have you filed a foreclosure as recently as three years?*

Yes
No

A foreclosure must have been completed three or more years prior to submitting an application to Bend Habitat and the household must be able to demonstrate a pattern or improved management and payment of debt.

4. Do you fit within the current income guidelines for your family size?*

Yes
No

Each year the Income Guidelines are revised (based on Housing and Urban Development research) and we use a range of 40-75% of the county median annual income. Click here to check if your household income is within these guidelines.

5. Is your short term debt-to-income ratio below 12%? If not sure, use our DTI Calculator Tool on this website, to estimate your debt-to-income ratio.*

Yes
No

Your DTI ratio is your personal monthly budget and how much can be safely dedicated to home-related expenses. Monthly debt includes medical/dental, school loans (even deferred school loans), child support/alimony payments, car payments, loans, past due accounts. Does not include rent, utilities, or insurance.

6. Do you have a credit score of 620 and above?*

Yes
No

If “NO” answer: We recommend that you begin credit counseling to increase your credit score. You can get a free credit report once a year at Annual Credit Report. Review this report with the credit coaches (no charge) at NeighborImpact by calling 541-318-7506. Credit scores determine your credit worthiness for obtaining a mortgage loan. Generally, the better your credit ranking, the more likely it is you will be able to secure a loan with favorable terms.
