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 $2,217.09 monthly housing cost at 28% of gross income, you'd need about $95,018 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 10 months, more of each payment goes to interest than to principal. From payment 203 on, principal takes the larger share.
