What is DSR?

Debt Service Ratio (DSR) is the percentage of your net monthly income used to pay all your loans, including the new home loan. For example, with a net income of RM8,000 and a 60% DSR limit, your total monthly commitments should not exceed RM4,800.

Each bank sets its own DSR limit, and higher income earners are often allowed a higher DSR. Use this estimate as a starting point, then compare your monthly instalment in the Home Loan Calculator.
