Estimate: the median of the 32 state rates we have sourced. Insurance is left out because we have no sourced average for this estimate yet; add your own quote.

Income needed

To keep the $958.01 monthly housing cost at 28% of gross income, you'd need about $41,058 a year. Lenders also cap total debt payments near 36% of income, so car and student loan payments reduce what you can borrow.

Amortization schedule

For the first 16 years 2 months, more of each payment goes to interest than to principal. From payment 195 on, principal takes the larger share.
