🏡 How Much House Can I Afford?
It's one of the biggest questions homebuyers ask, and the answer is about MUCH more than your income or the price of a home!
Your buying power depends on several factors, including your income, monthly debts, credit, down payment, loan program, and interest rate.
But here's something I always want my buyers to understand. 💙
What you QUALIFY for and what you're COMFORTABLE spending aren't necessarily the same thing!
Your monthly housing costs may include principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and mortgage insurance (when applicable). And don't forget about utilities, maintenance, savings, and LIFE!
Just because you qualify for a certain amount doesn't mean you need to spend it.
My goal isn't to help you buy the MOST expensive house you qualify for. It's to help you find a home and payment that fit YOUR life! ❤️
