    It is suppose to be 4 times your annual salary, thus is its two of you add both salaries,However in recent years people were borrowing more than 10 times their annual salary,hence the credit crunch as they could not afford the huge mortgage, in the end its up to you to live without too many worries or take a risk, good luck.
