Summary: Consolidate high interest debt.  Good financial situation.  Help us lower our monthly expenses by over $300!

Purpose of loan:

Pay off high interest credit card debt of ~$12,000 and pay-off truck ~$3,000.

My financial situation:

The reason for the high DTI is that I am currently an architecture student working part-time.  My husband is a teacher and makes exactly $43,701/yr (Baltimore City Public Schools Bachelor Degree Step 6).  He also teaches in the summer, works part of the year making $15-20/hr in tips, and will make over $49,000 as he will complete his masters degree in the spring.  He has maxed out his credit cards paying for school.  His Experian credit score is 688 which would give him a prosper score of B and his approximate DTI is 30%.  See the screen shot of his credit score in my pictures.  We also own a house that we bought through the HUD Teacher Next Door Program in which teachers buy houses at 50% appraised value with a required residency of three years.  We will meet that requirement on 9/13/08 and can then sell the house.  By today's market value we have $40,000-60,000 in equity.  We will definitely keep this loan for at least 1.5 years and likely the full 3 years.
