From speaking to brokers, you can usually borrow up to 4 times the income of the first persons income, plus 1 times the second persons income. People on higher incomes (60k+) can usually stretch a little more out of the lender. Different lenders have different rules depending on deposits, area you're buying in etc, so to be sure just stick to the 4+1 and you should get a good idea.
