How Much Can I Afford?
Several factors influence how much home you can comfortably afford. Understanding these basics can help you plan with confidence and avoid surprises along the way.
Down Payment
The initial amount you contribute toward the purchase price. The size of your down payment can impact your loan options and overall costs.
Mortgage Qualification
Lenders review your income, debts, credit history, and financial profile to determine what loan amount you may qualify for.
Closing Costs
These are the expenses required to complete the purchase, including lender fees, title services, and other related costs. Closing costs vary but are typically a percentage of the purchase price.
