Do the math

What would you pay each month for a home in Pinecrest?

A typical home costs more than the typical income allows

We start with a typical home in Pinecrest, worth $1,406,400, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 68% of the typical household income in Pinecrest, which is $206,417 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $498,053 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.
