What does an affordability calculator estimate?

It estimates a practical home budget range based on income, debt, fixed costs, financing terms, and housing ratio assumptions.

What is a safe vs stretch budget?

A safe budget is conservative for lower risk, while a stretch budget assumes tighter monthly cash flow and higher repayment pressure.

Should I rely only on this result before buying?

No. Use it as planning guidance, then verify loan offers, taxes, insurance, and legal costs with lenders and professionals.

Can this help first-time buyers?

Yes. It gives a clear starting point for first-time buyers to compare affordability scenarios before house hunting.
