Affordability tips
Plan your budget with confidence.
01
Start with the monthly number
Decide the payment you’re comfortable with first, then work backward to a price range — not the other way around.
02
Remember property tax
California property tax is based on purchase price, commonly around 1.1–1.3% per year including local assessments. Mello-Roos or special assessments can add more in newer communities.
03
Compare lenders
Rates and fees vary. Comparing Loan Estimates from two or three lenders can save real money over the life of the loan.
04
Ask about assistance
Down payment assistance programs exist for many buyers. A lender can tell you what you qualify for.
