サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Dr. Disha tackles a recurring question in physician finance groups: “Can I afford this house?” Using a case study of the Smith family, she walks through the key financial ratios—HR1 (housing costs) and HR2 (debt-to-income)—that determine whether a home purchase is financially sustainable. Despite a $300K annual income, the family’s student loan and car payments push their debt-to-income ratio to 42%, beyond the recommended 36%. Dr. Spath advises waiting to buy, paying off existing debts, and boosting savings before stretching for a home that could lead to financial strain.
