How Much Home Can I Afford?

How this is calculated

  • Comfortable keeps your housing payment to about a quarter of your monthly income.
  • Slide right to stretch — each step lets a larger share of your income go toward housing. Use it only if your income is stable.
  • Property tax is estimated as a percentage of the home price and included in the monthly payment.
  • Mortgage insurance is added automatically when your down payment is under 20%.
  • This is a guideline — some loan programs allow more. A loan officer can confirm your real maximum.

Important disclaimer

The figures produced by this calculator are estimates provided for informational and educational purposes only. They are not a commitment to lend, a loan estimate, or a guarantee of any terms, rate, or approval.

Actual costs depend on many factors the tool cannot fully account for, including your specific loan program, the property's location and type, your credit profile, debt-to-income ratio, income documentation, current market interest rates, mortgage insurance requirements, taxes, and insurance premiums.

Interest rates, fees, and program guidelines change frequently. For an accurate quote tailored to your situation, connect with a One Eleven Mortgage loan officer who can review your complete financial picture and provide live, personalized numbers.
