How to Use This Calculator
Instructions
1. Enter Your Estimated Home Price. Not sure where to start? The median home price in Lexington is currently around $[XXX,XXX]. Use that as a baseline or enter the price of a home you're considering.
2. Set Your Down Payment. Most buyers put down between 5% and 20%. A larger down payment reduces your monthly payment and may eliminate PMI.
3. Choose Your Loan Term. Most buyers choose a 30-year fixed mortgage for lower monthly payments. A 15-year loan saves on interest but raises the monthly cost.
4. Add Taxes, Insurance, and HOA. These costs significantly impact your real monthly payment. We've pre-filled Lexington averages, but you can adjust them based on the specific property.
What This Calculator Doesn't Show
Mortgage calculators are a useful starting point, but they don't capture the full picture of homeownership. Other costs to factor in:
- Closing costs (typically 2-5% of the home price)
- Maintenance and repairs (budget around 1% of home value annually)
- Utility costs
- Earnest money and inspection fees during the buying process
A local agent can walk you through the full cost picture for any specific property you're considering.
