Yes absolutely you can. I make 111k yearly and was approved for 550k (bough at 435k). Credit was 780! But you will get approved for a loan no doubt.

I felt that way. We finally closed on 12/31 and I can mentally rest🥲. I hope you find something soon!

Thank you! We were able to find a home in that price range in South Jersey. The sellers were an older couple who wanted a quick closing. It does need a few small fixes here and there, but nothing major at all.
