GP Commit loan impact on borrowing ability?

For those of you who have lines of credit set up to fund your GP commits, do you have to disclose this as debt when applying for a mortgage to buy a house/apartment?

The GP commit loan balance can get pretty big so wondering if this can impact one’s ability to get a mortgage.

Based on the most helpful WSO content, yes, GP commit loans can impact your borrowing ability when applying for a mortgage. These loans are considered debt and would typically need to be disclosed as part of your financial obligations. Mortgage lenders assess your debt-to-income (DTI) ratio, credit score, and overall financial profile when determining your eligibility. A high GP commit loan balance could increase your DTI ratio, potentially affecting your ability to qualify for a mortgage or the terms you are offered.

If you're concerned about this, it might be worth discussing with a mortgage broker or lender to understand how they view such obligations and whether there are strategies to mitigate the impact on your mortgage application.
