FHA Loan Calculator: This calculator determines loan amounts for FHA mortgages, which require a minimum 3.5% down payment and include both upfront (1.75%) and annual MIP. Annual MIP rates vary from 0.15% to 0.75% based on loan amount, LTV ratio, and term. For loans over $726,200 or with LTV above 90%, MIP is typically paid for the entire loan term. FHA prefers front-end DTI at 31% or below and back-end DTI at 43% or below, though higher ratios may be acceptable with compensating factors.

Our FHA Prequalification Calculator works backward from your target monthly payment to estimate how much home you can afford. Instead of starting with a loan amount, it begins with what matters most— a payment that fits your budget.

Enter your desired monthly payment first. Then add your monthly debts, such as student loans, car payments, and minimum credit card payments, along with your gross monthly income. Finish by entering the interest rate and loan term.

Your estimated FHA mortgage payment includes one-twelfth of annual real estate taxes and homeowner’s insurance.

Because this is an early prequalification step, the calculator uses standard estimates— 25% of the monthly payment for real estate taxes and 12% for homeowner’s insurance. The minimum FHA down payment is 3.5%.

Closing costs and escrow vary by location, but using 6% of the purchase price is a reasonable starting point.

Cash Required plus Closing Costs reflects the estimated down payment, closing costs, and escrow. The FHA upfront fee of 1.75% is included in the loan amount.

Home sellers may contribute up to 6% of the sales price toward your closing and escrow costs, which can significantly reduce the cash you need at closing.
