What kind of home could you realistically buy?

Method. We take the lower of two limits: what your income supports after other debts at a common debt-to-income guideline, and what your cash supports at a 5% down payment plus roughly 3% closing costs. The payment uses a 30-year fixed amortization at the hypothetical rate you choose, plus estimated taxes, insurance, and mortgage insurance under 20% down.
What this isn't. It isn't a pre-approval, a qualification, a rate quote, or a commitment to lend. Nothing was verified and no credit was reviewed.

Hypothetical rate assumption used to model this scenario — not a rate quote or offer. Details
The rate shown is a planning assumption you can change. It is not available pricing, is not locked, and is not an advertisement of specific credit terms. Real pricing comes from a licensed advisor after an application.

Your actual rate, taxes, insurance and eligibility will differ. A licensed advisor can walk through what changes your number most.
