Estimates only — not financial advice. They produce estimates based on the figures you enter and do not account for every fee, tax or change in rate.
The 28/36 rule
Lenders often look for housing costs under 28% of your gross monthly income and total debt under 36%. These are guidelines, not guarantees — your comfort matters more than the maximum a lender will approve.
