How to Use This Calculator

The Formula
Monthly Payment P&I = Principal × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n - 1]
Interest Portion = Remaining Principal Balance × Monthly Interest Rate
Principal Portion = Monthly Payment - Interest Portion

Understanding Your Result
Lenders use two DTI ratios: front-end (housing costs ÷ gross income) must be below 28% for conventional loans; back-end (all debts ÷ gross income) must be below 43%. Down payment below 20% triggers PMI (0.5–1.5% of loan balance annually). 20% down is the break-even point where PMI savings offset the reduced loan balance benefit. Every 1% rise in mortgage rate reduces buying power by approximately 10% for the same monthly payment.
💡 Real Estate: Financial & Legal Considerations
- Real estate calculations assume stable market conditions. Actual values, tax rates, and income are volatile — recalculate quarterly for active decisions.
- The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) provides free homebuyer resources. Obtain a professional appraisal before any major transaction.
- Factor all carrying costs: property taxes (avg 1.1% nationally), insurance (0.5–1%), HOA, maintenance (1–2% of value annually), and vacancy rates.
- Mortgage qualification requires reviewing DTI ratio, credit score (min 620 for conventional, 580 for FHA), employment history, and liquid reserves.
- Closing costs typically range 2–5% of the purchase price in the US. Budget for these separately — they are not included in down payment calculations.
- The 28/36 qualifying rule: housing costs should not exceed 28% of gross income; total debt should not exceed 36% for conservative underwriting.
- Investment property returns must account for management fees (8–12%), turnover costs, and capital expenditure reserves — not just gross rent.
- Real estate is illiquid. Always maintain separate liquid emergency reserves independent of any property investment or equity.
