If one of your questions is will the bond payment be used in calculating how much of a mortgage you will qualify for the answer is yes. Just like your property taxes and insurance is used for the calculation so is the bond if you are not paying it off. Lots of info and suggestions on paying the bond off or not are on this web site.
