Frequently Asked Questions
How is a mortgage payment calculated?
Monthly mortgage payments are calculated using the loan amount, interest rate, and loan term. The standard formula factors in principal and interest. Your total monthly payment also includes property taxes, homeowner's insurance, and possibly PMI.
What is PMI?
PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) is required when your down payment is less than 20% of the home's value. PMI typically costs 0.5% to 1.5% of the loan amount annually. It can be removed once you reach 20% equity.
How much house can I afford?
A common guideline is that your monthly housing payment (including taxes and insurance) should not exceed 28% of your gross monthly income. Your total debt payments should not exceed 36% of your gross income.
