How Much Can You Afford? (Affordability Formula)

Formula:

Maximum Purchase Price = (Gross Annual Income × 4–5) − Existing Debt

Example:

If your household earns $120,000/year and has $500/month in existing debt, your estimated max purchase price is around $550,000–$600,000, depending on down payment and lender program.

Your mortgage advisor will calculate this precisely during your pre-approval — including taxes, insurance, and down payment scenarios.
