What goes into the $3,784 payment

Six-hundred-thousand-dollar homes are typical in many coastal metros. A 20% down payment is $120,000 and the $480,000 loan puts principal and interest above $3,000 a month at 6.5%.

This estimate assumes property tax of 1.1% of the price per year ($6,600), homeowners insurance of $2,400 per year, and no PMI, because the down payment is 20% or more. Actual property tax and insurance vary widely by state and property — swap in your real figures above.

Method & sources

Principal and interest use the standard fixed-rate amortisation formula. Property tax is estimated as a percentage of the purchase price per year, homeowners insurance as a flat annual amount, private mortgage insurance (PMI) applies only when the down payment is under 20%, and HOA dues are added where the scenario lists them. Real tax bills, insurance quotes and PMI rates depend on your county, lender and credit score.
