Of the net? About 20% if you include taxes and insurance. 40% of our monthly payment is taxes and insurance.

What % of your net take home pay is your mortgage payment?
Sub 3% interest rate, 15 year note. The total mortgage payment & escrow is about 15% of our monthly net take-home.

Are you significantly upgrading your home? Or is it weighted in higher mortgage interest?

Going from my Bachelor pad to building a custom home. Plus loosing my 3.5% interest rate. But what the wife wants the wife gets.

6%. But my monthly income can vary greatly. So that 6% is yearly mortgage payment vs yearly take home.

40% - about to start a go fund me

33.7%. This is accounting for both my rental and primary mortgages and I am factoring in my rental income into my net income.
Just my primary and all net income minus rental income = 25.4%

We live in a large home on the water here in Tampa. We're at 3.5%. Got insanely lucky buying during COVID

We're at 14.5% including escrow. If we upgraded our house to something we really wanted, we'd be easily at 33%. That's with rolling over all of our equity to a new home too. I truly don't know how people are doing that. I refuse to be house-poor.

Exactly 33%. Not exactly the situation I want to be in, but I just got this house a few months ago and it was what I was willing to accept with how high interest rates currently are.
Compared against my NET pay, I am well below any commonly accepted rules of thumb. I haven't changed any of my investments.
33% is inclusive of mortgage, insurance, escrow

I’ve found that this percentage matters somewhat less the more you make
