Loan-to-Income (LTI) Ratio Calculator

The Loan-to-Income ratio (LTI) = loan principal ÷ gross annual income is the single most-used indicator in global mortgage regulation. Enter both numbers and the tool returns the LTI multiple, classifies it against real regulatory caps (UK PRA 4.5× flow-rate limit, Central Bank of Ireland 4× first-time-buyer cap, etc.) and shows the maximum loan permitted at the 3.5×, 4.0× and 4.5× thresholds plus the remaining headroom.

For your income, the maximum loan permitted at the 3.5×, 4.0× and 4.5× thresholds, plus the remaining headroom (negative means you exceed the cap).

Cap Max loan Headroom

LTI is a coarse affordability screen — it does not replace a full DSR / DTI stress test. Actual approval also depends on rate, term, other debts, living costs and credit history.

Formula

LTI = Loan principal ÷ Gross annual income

Frequently asked

How is LTI different from DTI and DSR?

They are complementary, not substitutes. LTI (loan-to-income) = loan principal ÷ annual income — a leverage measure that captures how big the borrowed amount is relative to earnings, but ignores rate and term. DTI (debt-to-income) = total monthly debt payments ÷ monthly income — captures cash-flow pressure but not the absolute loan size. DSR (debt servicing ratio), HKMA's variant, is DTI restricted to mortgage payments and recomputed under a +2 ppt stress test. In practice: (a) LTI is a quick screen — under 4× rarely disqualifies anyone; (b) DTI / DSR is the final affordability check — even if LTI is fine, too much credit-card / auto / student debt pushing DTI above 43 % will still cause a decline; (c) when rates spike, LTI is unchanged but DSR worsens sharply, which is why regulators increasingly emphasise stressed DSR. A thorough self-check uses both: LTI ≤ 4× and stressed DSR ≤ 50 %.

What does the UK 4.5× "flow-rate limit" actually mean?

A common misread: "the UK bans anyone borrowing more than 4.5×". The reality is subtler. The BoE Financial Policy Committee's 2014 rule is that each lender's flow of new mortgages (rolling 4-quarter) may contain at most 15 % with LTI ≥ 4.5×. Implications: (a) individual applications can exceed 4.5× provided the lender hasn't used its 15 % quota; (b) big banks typically allocate the quota to first-time buyers and high-income professionals; (c) small building societies, whose quota is proportionally small, often can't approve any high-LTI applications at all. So a lower-income borrower with patchy employment history will find 4.5×+ nearly impossible; high-earning lawyers, doctors and IT managers can sometimes get 4.7–5× by picking the right lender and timing (early in a quarter, before the quota is spent). For buyers using LTI only as a screen, sitting below 4.0× keeps you clear of nearly every lender's internal cap, opens the widest panel of banks, and unlocks the best rates.

Is a high LTI safe if my LTV is low?

LTI (borrower-side) and LTV (collateral-side) measure two independent risks. LTV (Loan-to-Value) = loan ÷ property price — captures lender risk: how much the bank loses if the property falls in value. LTI captures borrower risk: whether the borrower has enough income to service the payments. A low LTV (big deposit) does not reduce monthly cash-flow pressure — losing your job still means losing it regardless of how much equity you put down. Example: a buyer earning £50k purchases a £400k home with a £150k deposit, borrowing £250k — LTV 62.5 % (healthy) but LTI = 5.0× (high). Six months of unemployment still breaks the budget. Both ratios must pass: the UK PRA monitors LTI and LTV simultaneously, and a responsible lender combines them — they might approve LTV 50 % with LTI 5× while rejecting LTV 90 % with LTI 5×. The honest read: a big deposit cannot "buy" extra LTI room, only reduce LTV risk. To genuinely improve affordability you either add deposit (drops both LTV and LTI) or grow income (drops LTI only).
