Why Changing Jobs for More Money Can Still Complicate a Home Purchase

Getting a new job with a higher salary sounds like good financial news, especially when you are preparing to buy a home. But if the change happens while you are applying for a mortgage, the timing can create additional questions. Mortgage qualification is not based solely on how much you earn. Lenders also evaluate the stability, history, and documentation of the income being used to qualify.

Condo buyers can encounter another layer that sometimes comes as a surprise. Depending on the financing being used, the financial and operational condition of the condominium project itself may also matter.
