Estimates only. Monthly payment figures are based on a standard fixed-rate amortization schedule. Property tax and insurance are user-supplied estimates and vary by address and coverage level. PMI is estimated at 0.7% of the loan amount annually; actual rate is set by your lender. Closing costs are estimated at 4%; actual costs vary. Rent vs. Buy analysis uses assumed 4.2% annual Mid-Valley appreciation, 3% annual rent increases, and 7% investment return — actual figures will vary significantly. Opportunity cost is illustrative.
