Borrower Repayment Ability

A lender extending subsection 10 mortgage loans may not engage in a pattern or practice of extending credit to a borrower based on the borrower's collateral without regard to the borrower's repayment ability, including the borrower's current and expected income, current obligations, and employment. There is a presumption that a lender has violated this requirement if the lender engages in a pattern or practice of making subsection 10 mortgages without verifying and documenting borrowers' repayment ability. A borrower will be presumed to be able to make the scheduled payments to repay the obligation if, at the time the loan is consummated, the total monthly debts of the borrower, including amounts owed under the loan, do not exceed 55% of the monthly gross income of the borrower as verified by the credit application, the financial statement of the borrower, a credit report, or financial information provided to the lender by or on behalf of the borrower. However, no presumption of inability to make the scheduled payments to repay the obligation will arise solely from the fact that the borrower's total monthly debts, including amounts owed under the loan, exceed 55% of the monthly gross income of the borrower.
