These calculators provide estimates for educational purposes only — they are not a loan quote, rate lock, pre-approval, or commitment to lend, and actual figures depend on your full application, credit profile, and current rates through Unitas Lending. Property tax, insurance, and HOA figures are user-entered estimates, not verified amounts.

Want real numbers instead of an estimate? Get pre-approved.

Frequently Asked

Why 30% of income as the rule of thumb?+

It's a long-standing budgeting guideline, not a law — some households comfortably spend more, others less, depending on other debts and savings goals. This calculator also checks a total-debt ceiling so a high rent-ratio number doesn't overlook other obligations.

Does this account for utilities and renter's insurance?+

No — this estimates rent alone. Budget separately for utilities, renter's insurance, and moving costs on top of this number.
