Lenders also cap payments by income (debt-to-income ratio) and add fees; treat this as the upper limit your budget allows.

A payment of $1,500.00 a month for 240 months supports a loan of $186,198.20; with your down payment that buys up to $236,198.20. Of the $360,000.00 you pay in total, $173,801.80 is interest.

طريقة الحساب S
  1. Monthly rate and number of payments

    r=7.51200=0.00625,n=240r = \frac{7.5}{1200} = 0.00625,\qquad n = 240
  2. Present value of your payments

    P=1,500.00×1−(1+0.00625)−2400.00625=186,198.20P = 1{,}500.00 \times \frac{1 - (1 + 0.00625)^{-240}}{0.00625} = 186{,}198.20

    This is the EMI formula solved for the loan amount.

  3. Price with your down payment

    186,198.20+50,000.00=236,198.20186{,}198.20 + 50{,}000.00 = 236{,}198.20

حول Loan affordability calculator

This works the EMI formula backwards. Given the monthly payment you can afford, the largest loan it repays is P = M × (1 − (1 + r)^−n) ÷ r, where r is the monthly rate and n the number of payments; this is what Excel's PV function returns. Adding your down payment gives the highest price you can pay.

With the defaults, 1,500 a month for 20 years at 7.5% supports a loan of 186,198.20, and 50,000 down lifts the price you can afford to 236,198.20. The 240 payments total 360,000.00, of which 173,801.80 is interest.

The result is the ceiling your budget sets. Lenders also limit the payment by your income through the debt-to-income ratio, and property tax, insurance and fees come out of the same monthly budget.

الأسئلة

How much can I borrow with a given monthly payment?

Multiply the payment by the annuity factor (1 − (1 + r)^−n) ÷ r. At 8% over 20 years, r = 0.08 ÷ 12 and n = 240, so the factor is 119.55 and a payment of 500 a month supports a loan of 59,777.15. Microsoft's documentation for Excel's PV function gives the same figure for PV(0.08/12, 240, 500).

What debt-to-income ratio do lenders accept?

In the US, the CFPB suggests keeping total debt payments at 36% of gross monthly income or less and housing costs at 28% to 35%, though some lenders go to 43% or higher. Fannie Mae's standard maximum is 36%, rising to 45% with credit-score and reserve requirements and to 50% for loans underwritten through Desktop Underwriter. On a gross income of 5,000 a month, 36% is 1,800.

How does the interest rate change how much I can borrow?

A higher rate means more of each payment goes to interest, so the same payment supports a smaller loan. Over 20 years, 1,500 a month supports 201,187.51 at 6.5%, 186,198.20 at 7.5% and 172,846.26 at 8.5%: each percentage point costs about 7% of the loan. The chart shows the full curve for your payment and term.

Does a longer loan term let me borrow more?

Yes, but with diminishing returns and much more interest. At 7.5%, 1,500 a month supports 161,810.14 over 15 years, 186,198.20 over 20 years and 214,526.44 over 30 years. Going from 20 to 30 years adds 28,328.24 of borrowing but raises total interest from 173,801.80 to 325,473.56.
