Hi Joswaldys, 

I wouldn't consider 70K low income, you're actually in the higher bracket than most.

To answer your question, you should qualify so long as it has been 12 months since your last conventional loan.

Investments shouldn't effect debt to income ratio as they are viewed as an asset that provides cash flow to cover the mortgage. 

Let me know if you have any other questions!
