Question:

My partner and I have steady income. She works part-time and I work full-time. And currently, we have a mortgage which we can afford comfortably. We have a home, which we would consider our forever home, but are wondering if something were to happen career-wise, swap jobs or we just somehow got lower income, would we get rejected even if we were able to keep up with the payments?

Answer:

If you are talking about your current mortgage, then no. You’re going to have that loan as long as you continue making the payments on time. Now, if you ever wanted to refinance in the future for whatever reason, you would have to qualify all over again. So, at that point, you’d need to whichever income requirements are stated for the type of refinance you are looking to do.
