🔹 Scenario 1
Income: $120,000
Down Payment: $60,000
Estimated Max Home Price: ≈ $767,099
Estimated Monthly Payment: ≈ $4,900
With a strong income and a solid down payment, buyers in this range unlock significantly higher home affordability even at identical rates, taxes, and insurance.
🔹 Scenario 2
Income: $50,000
Down Payment: $40,000
Estimated Max Home Price: ≈ $283,361
Estimated Monthly Payment: ≈ $2,041
A lower income and smaller down payment reduce the maximum purchase price quickly, even though the interest rate and property expenses remain the same.
💡 Same Rate. Same Taxes. Same Insurance.
These examples highlight one major truth: Income + Down Payment = Your Buying Power.
Small changes in either number can make a big difference.
