Frequently Asked Questions

How much mortgage can I afford?

A common rule is to keep your monthly mortgage payment below 28% of your gross monthly income. Enter your maximum comfortable payment amount to see the corresponding loan amount.

What is the 28/36 rule?

The 28/36 rule says your mortgage payment should not exceed 28% of gross monthly income, and all debt payments should not exceed 36% of gross income.

Does the affordability calculator include a down payment?

Yes — enter your planned down payment and the calculator shows the maximum home price you can afford (loan amount + down payment).

What other costs should I consider when buying a home?

Beyond the loan payment, consider property taxes (0.5–2% of home value per year), homeowners insurance, HOA fees, and maintenance costs (typically 1% of home value per year).
