How Much House Can I Afford ? Online Calculator

So if you are looking to move and are asking yourself how much house can i afford then we have the answer to your question….

With mortgages at all time low interest rates but the banks unwilling to lend out you’ll probably be able to afford your mortgage because you won’t be able to borrow so much – sad but true. But it’s good that you are asking how much house can I afford and we have a great mortgage repayment calculator below that you just need to plug in your details to see what the monthly repayments are.

If you then take your household income and add up all your monthly outgoings you’ll then see what you have left over to pay the mortgage. Also calculate what the payments might be if the interest rates increase (which of course they will likely do in the coming months and years and these low rates can’t continue forever). Remember to include all your monthly expenses and that’s everything you spend your money on (and this exercise may help you cut back on some of your spending) and ensure you don’t forget anything. To begin budgeting here are some of the most common expenditure a typical person may have – add yours up from this list:

• car fuel, maintenance, insurance
• food, alcohol
• clothing for you and your children
• subscriptions
• child care
• credit card and loan repayments
• television subscriptions and cable
• auto loan repayments
• any other insurance for house or life or health care

It may be best to look at your bank statements for the previous couple of months to get an idea of exactly what you are spending your income on and then you’ll see exactly what’s left at the end of each month so you’ll know what you have to pay off your mortgage loan each month.

If you are on a budget and don’t believe your income is going to increase that much in the coming months and years then it may be a good idea to fix the interest rate so in that manner nothing will change in your outgoings and you’ll be able to budget for years to come. Many people are concerned for their jobs so perhaps redundancy cover may be an option to consider where the insurance pays out if you lose your current job.

Use this affordability calculator below to see what you need to do to cover all your expenses. Simply enter the loan amount you wish to borrow, the term of the mortgage and the interest rate – press “calculate” and it will show you your monthly mortgage payment over the term of the loan. You can keep changing the term, loan value and interest rate as many times as you wish in an attempt to bring down the monthly amount you’ll need to pay if you can’t afford the initial amounts shown in your household budget – give it a try now :
