To buy a median-priced Stark Cook Park home (around $255,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $46k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,718 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

10% (+PMI)$1,977/mo$52,718
5% (+PMI)$2,064/mo$55,043

Estimates use a 6.65% 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.
