Compare calculators
Both calculators run independently — change the inputs on either side to compare results.
Debt-to-Income Ratio Calculator
Calculate your debt-to-income ratio — the percentage of your gross monthly income that goes to debt payments — exactly the way mortgage lenders compute it. Use it to gauge how lenders will view your application and to identify whether your debt load is comfortable, stretched, or risky.
Mortgage Payment Calculator
Estimate the full monthly cost of owning a home — principal, interest, property tax, and homeowner's insurance — bundled into the single number lenders call PITI. Enter your loan amount, interest rate, loan term in years, annual property tax, and annual home insurance, and the calculator returns the monthly payment you would actually send (excluding PMI and HOA fees, which vary widely). This is the figure to compare against your monthly budget when deciding whether a home is affordable, and the figure mortgage lenders use to qualify you against debt-to-income limits.
