Do the math

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

A typical home costs more than the typical income allows

We start with a typical home in Prosper, worth $823,700, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 43% of the typical household income in Prosper, which is $195,281 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $300,731 a year. Note: at that price the loan is above the FHA limit for Collin County ($563,500), 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 Collin County.
