Frequently asked questions

Is there a 'good' ratio?

This tool doesn't label ratios good or bad. The same ratio can mean very different things for a resident and an established practice owner.

Should I use gross or take-home pay?

Gross (pre-tax) income, which is how lenders and federal income-driven plans generally measure income.

Why is the payment optional?

Some borrowers are in school, grace or forbearance. The balance ratio still gives useful context.

What's saved?

Nothing unless you save it to your Client Portal or start a Free Consultation.
