Home Affordability Calculator

Estimate how much you may be able to afford based on your income, debt level, and other factors.

This calculator uses your debt-to-income ratio (DTI) to determine the maximum loan amount. Here, we use a simplified "back-end" approach that measures how much of your income goes to all debt payments, including a new mortgage. Lenders may use additional DTI methods and consider information such as your credit score and earnings history when making lending decisions.

Remember, just because you can borrow a certain amount doesn't mean you should. For personalized guidance, talk with a qualified financial professional.
