Questions

How much is the monthly payment on a $530,000 house?

With 20% down, $2,829.43 a month in principal and interest at 7.03%, or about $3,173.93 with estimated property tax. With 10% down it is about $3,825.73 including PMI.

How much do I need to make to afford a $530,000 house?

About $136,026 a year with 20% down, keeping housing costs at 28% of gross income. With 5% down the payment rises to $4,019.14, which needs about $172,249.

How much is the down payment on a $530,000 house?

$26,500 at 5%, $53,000 at 10% and $106,000 at 20%. Below 20% most conventional loans add private mortgage insurance, estimated here at 0.75% of the loan a year.

How long do I pay PMI on a $530,000 house with 10% down?

Until the balance reaches 78% of the original price, when PMI ends automatically: 9 years 8 months at 7.03%, about $34,583 in PMI in total. You can ask to cancel it earlier at 80%.

Is 7.03% the rate I will get?

Not necessarily. It is Freddie Mac's weekly average for borrowers with about 20% down and strong credit, not a quote. A lender's quote depends on credit, down payment, points and the lender.
