To buy a median-priced River View home (around $225,000) at today's 7.28% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $42k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,592 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $1,592/mo | $42,442 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $1,830/mo | $48,797 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $1,912/mo | $50,975 |
Estimates use a 7.28% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
