for a loan amount of 500k 30 years fixed, pill the monthly mortgage would be around 2.5k. What i want to know is what would your gross income per month have to be for you to be accepted for a loan this amount?
— forgot to mention With a high credit score
——– the 500k is with a down payment already the total loan is 500k and in my area the rates are around 4% for 30 years fixed
— i have no debt, link my car payments have all been paid off

About $ 13,000. A $ 500,000 mortgage will have a $ 3,000 monthly payment plus property taxes and insurance.

Rule of thumb is that you can afford a house that is about 3 times your gross annual income. Some people qualify for more based on their individual situation (mine is 4x).

Rule of thumb #2: Your mortgage payment (principle, interest, property taxes, and insurance) should not exceed 28% of your gross monthly income. If you have no other debts (no car loans and you don’t carry a revolving balance on your credit cards) you may have slightly higher limits. Your total debt load (mortgage plus auto and other minimum debt payments) may not exceed 38% of your gross monthly income.

For best rates, you need 20% down and 740+ FICO. With less than 20% down you will have PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance).

  1. note that in some areas, taxes and insurance can be very large … 1/3 or even 1/2 the P&I payment is not unusual in coastal florida, for example.

    and your income has to be from a stable source as well … how’s your down payment??
