I did a mortgage calculator and it said I can only afford a $35,000 mortgage, are there other options?

My boy friend and I were quoted for a mortgage awhile ago that we would be able to do about 150 to 180K ,not too bad. But when I did a mortgage calculator online it only came out with the 35K total. We make more than some people we know and they own own homes. What did I do wrong? I just can’t believe that we would not be able to be qualified for a mortgage amount that is at least reasonable and would get us something nice and not a condo or townhome. Even though that is what everyone is telling us to buy. Please some one restore my faith or will we never be able to have a home of our own.
