His parents are willing and able to be borrowers on the loan, but they will not live in the home. For HFA Preferred, the parents’ income will be considered in meeting income eligibility requirements (based on the property location); their income, assets, credit, and liabilities are considered in underwriting; and their income is considered in calculating the DTI ratio.
