Do the math
What would you pay each month for a home in Burr Ridge?
A typical home costs more than the typical income allows
We start with a typical home in Burr Ridge, worth $700,400, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 47% of the typical household income in Burr Ridge, which is $156,829 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $261,217 a year. Note: at that price the loan is above the FHA limit for DuPage 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 DuPage County.
