The method

How it works

01 We assume your savings cover closing costs first, then up to 20% down (anything above stays as reserves).
02 The comfortable maximum is the price whose payment plus your existing debts stays inside the ~36% total-debt guideline.
03 The conservative target fits the housing payment alone inside the ~28% guideline.

Monthly P&I = L·r/(1−(1+r)^−n) (public-domain amortization); 28/36 rule per consumer-finance references.
