House Budgeting

Manual

When buying a home you will need to plan for upfront costs and recurring monthly costs (mortgage, insurance, maintenance fees, HOA). Our housing cost calculator estimates how much money you will need to save to pay for upfront costs and budget for monthly expenses. With this calculator you can determine whether or not you can afford that dream house or future investment property. You can follow the instructions below or watch our TikTok tutorial. By the way, we have a free budgeting app that takes care of saving for your monthly housing bill for you. Check us out in the app store - Mooch.
