Do the math

What would you pay each month for a home in Winter Park?

A typical home costs more than the typical income allows

We start with a typical home in Winter Park, worth $731,400, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 67% of the typical household income in Winter Park, which is $105,724 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $254,755 a year. Note: at that price the loan is above the FHA limit for Orange County ($541,287), 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 Orange County.
