How much home can you afford?
Want to know how much you can purchase? Enter four numbers and see a comfortable price range and a stretch range, with Florida property taxes and insurance included.
Before taxes, all borrowers.
Car, student loans, card minimums.
Example rate. Use your lender's quote.
With these numbers the debts use up the budget. Try lower debts or more down payment, or open the full calculator to adjust the ratios.
Like the range? Tell me what you want and I'll send homes that fit it.
Comfortable uses the common 28/36 guideline; stretch uses a 43% debt ratio. Assumes a 30-year fixed loan, 1.416% property tax (Lakewood Ranch area), $3,000/yr insurance and 0.5% PMI under 20% down. Change any of these in the full calculator. Estimates only, not a loan offer.
Your search, hand-picked.
No account to create and no endless scrolling. You tell me once what you want, and I do the searching.
