An individual credit account has available credit. When we look at available credit, we're trying to see if you live within your means. If you have $100,000 in credit lines and you're using $90,000 of that, you use credit indiscriminately. To us, you don't have the maturity to handle credit, and we're not giving you any more. Who knows what will happen over the next 30 years. We look at your history because we can't predict the future. Your income now, your reserves, etc. Available credit?

Like if you have a credit card with a limit of $1000 and you have $300 on it you would have $700 available credit. For home loans we look at the last two years and we try to predict out three years. We ask questions like do you expect this income to continue? We take your gross income (before taxes) and take 45% of it, then we subtract your debts (bills) to find out what your max payment can be. Hope this helps Good Luck, Available Credit is what you have open but are not using.
