Do the math

What would you pay each month for a home in Coral Gables?

A typical home costs more than the typical income allows

We start with a typical home in Coral Gables, worth $1,089,900, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 82% of the typical household income in Coral Gables, which is $134,216 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $391,030 a year. Note: at that price the loan is above the FHA limit for Miami-Dade County ($667,000), so FHA would not insure it; the payment is only a reference.

The calculator's FHA and conventional loan limits are those of all of Miami-Dade County.
