    Hi

    Myself and my partner both earn 50k combined. Over theast 4 years we have managed to consistently save just over 70k between us and have been gifted 20k, totalling 90k deposit.

    Our problem lies with the 3.5 multiple rule.
    While I appreciate it is put in place to limit excessive borrowing, we are looking for a bank willing to lend us 214,000 to be exact.

    Would BOI be willing in your opinion to consider lending us this amount, or is our salary simply restricting us to a max of 175,000.
    We can demonstrate to you consistent saving patterns, and frugal spending over the past few years. We are both young FTBs and have no dependents or other debt.

    Kind regards
    K.
