STEP 3: This step calculates an estimate of the actual mortgage amount you will qualify for. It uses the LOWER of (B) from Step 1 or (D) from Step 2 to determine the maximum amount available for your housing related payments. From this amount the estimated property taxes, heating costs and maintenance fees (where applicable) are deducted leaving the amount available for your mortgage payment. This amount is then converted into a mortgage amount.

=(E)$________ |
TO CALCULATE MAXIMUM MORTGAGE PREQUALIFICATION . . .
(E) $______ divided by (F)________ = $___________ divided by (G) _________ = (H) $___________ |
| ** (H) = NET MORTGAGE QUALIFICATION OF $________________ ** |
(F) = MORTGAGE PAYMENT FACTOR
Current Mortgage Payment Factor is:

- Enter as (F) in above formula. |
(G) = MORTGAGE INSURANCE FACTOR Choose one of the underlined amounts below and insert for (G). Factor is determined by your down payment as a percentage of the purchase price.
