(If it does not exceed 20%, you must pay monthly mortgage insurance, which adds an extra 0.58% to 1.86%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Home Ins: Enter your exact annual home insurance premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monthly HOA: If you are buying a condo, townhouse, or even a single-family home where an HOA exists, enter the monthly management\/maintenance fee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tip: To make your calculation even more accurate, you can combine this with your other fixed monthly debt payments\u2014such as auto loans, student loans, or minimum credit card payments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Loan Type: There are four main options: Conventional, FHA, VA, and USDA. In most standard cases, select Conventional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Once you enter the information above, the monthly loan payment amount will be calculated and displayed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:64px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*** Calculating this in reverse allows you to figure out how much annual income you need to qualify for a specific loan amount.
