Ash asked:


If you don’t mind my asking, I’m trying to figure out what a reasonable percent of my income is to be going towards a mortgage payment. My partner and I make around $6500 gross monthly, and I’m wondering what percent of that we could reasonably spend on a mortgage without getting in over our heads. We have no other debt, but have normal bills like utilities and car insurance. If you don’t mind could you please give me an idea of what you earn and what you put towards your mortgage? Or what percent of your gross income goes towards your mortgage payments?

Thanks so much!

For example if my 1st mortgage is $1000 per month and i charge a rental income of $1000 per month, is it a wash? Or do i get the $1000 rental income added to my gross monthly income and have the $1000 mortgage payment added to my monthly liabilities?

I know I could use a simple mortgage calculator, but I am curious to know how my mortgage payment is arrived at. Is it cumulative interest plus principal divided by years and months. Please could you supply a detailed example as I not too hot with maths. For example a £100000 mortgage at 5% over 25 years.
