A house affordability calculator determines the maximum home price you can comfortably purchase based on income, debts, down payment, and interest rate. Most lenders use the 28/36 rule: housing costs ≤28% of gross income, all debts ≤36%.

  2. 236% DTI rule: all monthly debts ≤ 36% of gross monthly income
  3. 3Subtract property tax, insurance, and HOA from the housing budget
  4. 4Remaining amount determines maximum mortgage → work back to home price
