Assumptions

  • Fixed interest rate for the full term.
  • Property tax, insurance and HOA stay constant (in reality they usually rise over time).
  • PMI applies only when the loan is over 80% of the home price, and stops once the balance reaches 78% of the original price.
  • Extra payments go entirely to principal.
  • Connecticut figures: Effective rate = ACS median real estate taxes paid ÷ ACS median value, owner-occupied housing units, by state. Source: US Census Bureau ACS 2024.
