Buyer Budget Framework

Estimate your practical home-buying budget from income, debt, and monthly costs.

How This Is Calculated

1) Max Housing Budget = (Gross Income x 32%) - Monthly Debt

2) Max Mortgage Payment = Max Housing Budget - Property Tax / 12 - Monthly Fees

3) Max Loan = PMT x ((1+r)^n - 1) / (r x (1+r)^n)

4) r = 0.004083 and n = 300

5) Max Home Price = Max Loan + Down Payment = $281,628 + $90,000 = $371,628
