Is a $250,000 Home Affordable?
A common rule of thumb is that your home should cost no more than 3× your annual income, and your monthly payment should be no more than 28% of your gross monthly income.
At $1,331/month (30-year, 7%, 20% down), you would need a gross monthly income of at least $4,752 (annual: $57,026) to keep housing costs at 28% of income.
A 15-year mortgage at 6.75% costs $1,770/month but saves $160,450 in total interest over the life of the loan compared to 30 years.
