How did you get approved for this mortgage? Usually the limit is 43% at absolute most.

Well since your mortgage is presumably locked in at a fixed rate. The solution is an easy one. Increase your income.

Idk why banks do gross income when calculating debt to value. It’s like they don’t think people pay taxes or something.

He probably knew he was screwing you too that's ****ed up, my lender told me repeatedly to confirm what my taxes would be

So escrow went up with increasing insurance, other costs? Ya might want to add a second income stream just in case. Even if only a few hundred bucks a week it would provide some breathing room.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!
