Monthly payment calculator
Change any number and the payment updates. Everything here is arithmetic you can check yourself.
How to read this
Four things the calculator assumes, so you know where it stops.
Property tax here is estimated at 1.25% of purchase price, which is the sample rate this demo uses for Santa Clara County including typical bonds.
Your first year also brings a supplemental bill based on the new assessed value. Budget for it separately.
Insurance on a single family home in this county commonly runs $120 to $260 a month as a sample range.
Mortgage insurance is not included. Below 20% down, add roughly $150 to $400 a month depending on credit and coverage.
Working backward from income instead? Use the affordability calculator. Already own? Try the refinance break even.
