A Simple Way to Estimate Your Budget:
A good rule of thumb is the 28/36 rule:
- 28% Rule: Your monthly housing costs (mortgage payment, property taxes, insurance) should not exceed 28% of your gross monthly income.
- 36% Rule: Your total debt payments, including your housing costs and other debts (car loans, student loans, credit cards), should not exceed 36% of your gross monthly income.
Example:
If your gross monthly income is $5,000:
- Maximum housing costs: $5,000 * 0.28 = $1,400
- Maximum total debt payments: $5,000 * 0.36 = $1,800
Remember: This is just an estimate. Your actual budget may vary depending on your financial situation and other factors.
