In my wife's hometown it's a million bucks to get a starter type home. Yeah, you make more but you damn sure spend large % of your salary on the mortgage... her parent can't understand why we want to live in philly instead their rich town on long island.... we cant, that's why.

Factoring in our effective (Federal + State + Local) Tax rate of ~ 29%, the percentage of mortgage’s annual amount to our actual post-tax annual income was around 8.5%.

My mortgage vs gross income is 18.7%
Posted on 2/7/19 at 2:19 pm to PortHudsonPlaya
18% of take home pay (salary minus taxes, health ins and retirement funding)

Zero point zero percent, but there is still insurance and taxes counting those it is roughly 3.5% of our post take income. We have a very small mortgage on our vacation house, instead of paying it off we paid it way down but keep a mortgage just for credit purposes, it along with those taxes and insurance is about 2.5% so a total of ~6% post tax.

We pay 9% of gross for housing.

So you spent about 250K on a house assuming you have a 30 year mortgage. That puts you payin g around 600 to 700 a month in interest up front for the first half of the loan. Should have bought less house and paid off sooner. Turn it to rental and let someone else pay you dream mortgage. That would have raised your income to about 200K a year.

I make more than you. Ha.

My property tax runs about $900/month. I pull in around $40k/yr. - you should be good.

Jesus Christ. How do you people make so damn much? It’s a struggle just to find a company willing to give cost of living raises these days

Mines at 16% of gross and I feel like that’s high. I couldnt imagine being 25%+

I agree. No raise in two years. Down market.

I believe the rule of thumb is like 28% of your gross income
That seems really high to me.
It's really not. People get into trouble with money with expensive vehicles or credit cards. Or eat out every night and live way outside their means. A 30% or lower ratio should be fine. My wife and I are around the 10% mark, but our next home could be closer to 20%.
A house could potentially be a great investment if it's going to be in St. George baw.

On a good year, I make about $3.6 million.
My mortgage is $1236. Because why splurge?
Truck note is $735. Nuts were included.

Dude. It’s the OT. You know damn well most are lying out their asses. Most probably make under 50,000.

I'm at 16% with what I pay monthly, which is a good bit over minimum

0% of my salary goes to my mortgage. And it's glorious.
