Do the math

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

A typical home costs more than the typical income allows

We start with a typical home in Lindon, worth $675,500, an FHA loan with 3.5% down and the latest average rate (7.18%). That payment would take 53% of the typical household income in Lindon, which is $120,956 a year. For that payment to be 28% of income, a household would need to earn about $227,082 a year. Note: at that price the loan is above the FHA limit for Utah County ($601,450), 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 Utah County.

  • The ITIN row is an example with a rate 1 percentage point higher: ITIN loans follow no federal rule and each lender sets its own down payment and rate. Nothing in this table promises an approval.
