There is such a range in home prices around me. From condo's in the $100K -$1M to homes from $300K to multiple millions mansions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494327 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 15:04:36 +0000 yoursilverlining 494327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea what the average is since it depends so much on how much $ someone puts down, what interest rate you get, what your taxes are, what your insurance costs, if you have HOA fees, etc. I would say that very, very generally homes are between $275k-450k for an average single family home and taxes are an additional $3500-6000/year. </p> <p>Our mortgage is about $1850/month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494326 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 15:04:18 +0000 MrsBrewer 494326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say probably in the $1000 range. It's crazy we paid $80k for our house, and our mortgage payment is $920 (but we got a 15 year loan) and included in our mortgage payment is property taxes and home owners insurance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494320 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 15:02:29 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 494320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: ah what is the interest rate where you live? here a $150k house amortized over 25 years would have a mortgage payment of $716 monthly. (I'm a mortgage agent in Canada)</p> <p>We pay $710 biweekly, I'd say most of our friends and people we know in the area pay about the same, maybe a bit more. All houses are over the $300k mark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494308 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:58:21 +0000 Bao 494308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I just did it based on what the average house costs here for a regular joe, and went from there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494304 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:57:55 +0000 PurplePumps 494304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The majority of people I know bought houses anywhere from 400k-600k, so their mortgage and taxes are probably anywhere between 2-3k. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494299 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:56:33 +0000 fussygal 494299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think here it's around $1000-$1100 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494291 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:55:36 +0000 Mrs. Pen 494291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow yours and tororojo's are so low!</p> <p>Houses here run in the 150-200k range so that's about $1300-1800 house payment. </p> <p>We rent an apt for $850 and that's at the tip top of our budget. We couldn't afford anything extra. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494265 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:48:00 +0000 mrs. bird 494265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Where are you finding the average mortgage? I'm not sure what it is near us, but our rent on a small 2br apt is a few hundred more than your mortgage will be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494254 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:45:00 +0000 autumnlove 494254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure of the average but ours will be a little over 2000 a month. I live in CA. :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494237 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:40:48 +0000 tororojo 494237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's so relative! BIL/SIL pay like $1500 a month for the home they just built, I believe...when DH and I buy a house that's less than half the price of theirs, I think our payments will be closer to $600 a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-is-the-average-mortgage-payment-where-you-live#post-494214 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 14:34:58 +0000 Bao 494214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around us, the average mortgage payment with taxes and insurance is about $1300/month. When we buy a house, our payments (everything included) will be around $800/month since we have a lower budget, since we are on one income. What is the average mortgage payment in your area? </p>
