House Poor
Home Affordability Calculator
Free · In‑App Purchases
Think you can afford that house? Enter your income and location — we'll calculate your real monthly costs and show your true max home price.
Are you about to become house poor?
House Poor tells you exactly what you can afford before you fall in love with a house that breaks your budget. Enter your income, location, and household — we fetch AI-powered cost estimates for your city and show you a clear, honest number.
**HOW IT WORKS**
Tell us where you live, your household makeup (adults, kids, pets, cars), and your monthly take-home pay. We estimate local costs using real data for your city — then show you your maximum affordable home price and a full monthly budget breakdown.
**WHAT YOU GET**
- Your max affordable home price, recalculated as you adjust the numbers
- Recommended home size (beds, baths, sq ft) for your household
- Full monthly budget waterfall: take-home → savings → expenses → housing left
- Affordability rating: Healthy, Stretching, or House Poor
- Editable cost breakdown — change any number and recalculate instantly
**WHY IT'S DIFFERENT**
Most mortgage calculators only look at your loan payment. House Poor factors in everything: property tax, home insurance, utilities, groceries, cars, kids, pets, student loans, and more — all estimated for your specific city. You see the real picture, not the optimistic one.
**BUILT FOR REAL DECISIONS**
Whether you're a first-time buyer, planning ahead, or just curious whether a move makes sense — House Poor gives you the numbers without the spin.
Free plan includes 3 estimates. Get more with a one-time purchase, or unlock unlimited estimates forever.
