Crime in Wabasis Lake is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level.

To buy a median-priced Wabasis Lake home (around $900,000) at today's 6.69% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $162k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $6,081 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $6,081/mo$162,166
10% (+PMI)$6,999/mo$186,637
5% (+PMI)$7,308/mo$194,872

Estimates use a 6.69% 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.
