Do the math

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

A typical home costs more than the typical income allows

We start with a typical home in Draper, worth $784,800, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 58% of the typical household income in Draper, which is $128,910 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $266,348 a year. Note: at that price the loan is above the FHA limit for Salt Lake County ($637,100), 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 Salt Lake County.
