What's Your Maximum Mortgage?

What is your maximum mortgage? That largely depends on your income and current monthly debt payments. This calculator collects these important variables and determines your maximum monthly housing payment and the resulting mortgage amount.

This Financial Calculator requires a Browser with Java Support



Definitions

Monthly income
Total monthly income from all sources. All income should be entered before taxes.

Monthly housing expenses
Your monthly houses expenses from the housing expenses worksheet. The items entered as housing expenses make up the taxes and insurance portion of your monthly PITI payment.

Monthly liabilities
Your monthly liabilities from the liabilities worksheet. Your monthly liabilities are used to calculate your maximum PITI.

Monthly housing payment (PITI)
This is your total Principal, Interest, Tax and Insurance (PITI) payment per month. This includes your principal, interest, real estate taxes, hazard insurance, association dues or fees and principal mortgage insurance (PMI). Maximum monthly payment (PITI) is calculated by taking the lower of these two calculations:

  1. Monthly Income X 28% = monthly PITI
  2. Monthly Income X 36% - Other loan payments = monthly PITI

Maximum principal and interest (PI)
This is your maximum monthly principal and interest payment. It is calculated by subtracting your monthly taxes and insurance from your monthly PITI payment. This calculator uses your maximum PI payment to determine the mortgage amount that you could qualify for.

Start interest rates at
The current interest rate you could receive on your mortgage. This is used as the starting point for displaying a range of interest rates and the resulting mortgage amount.

Term in years
The number of years over which you will repay this loan. The most common mortgage terms are 15 years and 30 years.

Real Estate Tips
Selling Your Home >Finding A Buyer

Selling a home is one of the most complex transactions that people are ever involved in. Finding a buyer is often the easy part! When you find someone who wants your home and who has the money to buy it, it is still a long way to the closing table.

You must first negotiate a purchase contract that covers the price and all the terms of the agreement. How much of a deposit will the buyer put down? When and how will the transfer of title occur? Under what conditions can either the buyer or seller back out of the contract? A professional home inspection will inform all parties about the condition of the property.

Having a good agent to handle the details after a home inspection can make the difference between a successful transaction and a failure. The buyer must obtain financing, and the lender's appraiser will have to agree with the sale price. When clear title has been established, you can sign all the necessary papers to finalize the sale.
