How much do we need to make to afford this house?
February 8, 2008
Lauren M asked:
We are interested in a house that we think we can get for $275k. We would put 20% down and have a 220k mortgage. This will be no problem with our dual salary, but we’re thinking that I will stay home when we have kids in a couple years. What salary do you think is appropriate for a 220k mortgage? We need to know what my husband would have to make.

Is there a web tool which can help me figure out how much house I can afford?

For example, I want to see if I can afford a home that costs $300,000 (I live in So. Cal) - or, if based off my salary what I can afford.
